About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on the stony soils of Friuli, which contribute a distinct mineral character.

Vinification

Harvest takes place in the second half of September. The grapes are gently pressed at the winery, then fermented in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18 °C.

Ageing

After bottling, the wine rests in bottle before release, allowing its flavours to become more harmonious.

Tasting profile

The aroma is elegant and fresh. The palate is bright and lively, with a distinct mineral character and harmonious flavours.

Label / history

The wine won a gold medal at the Concorso Mondiale del Sauvignon.
