Sauvignon Blanc Friuli

Sauvignon Blanc Friuli DOC Grave

A noble grape with great personality!
An unconventional style with an intensely aromatic bouquet and appetising sapidity.

Vegetal notes, including elder, combine with hints of bergamot and a tropical symphony of passion fruit, papaya, and lychee. On the palate, it is fresh, rich, generous, and balanced. Hints of lime and sage blend with an explosion of tropical and ripe fruit. Vibrant freshness, pleasant sapidity, and rich acidity.

The finish is gradual and persistent, with a hint of minerality.
