Russiz Superiore Sauvignon Collio DOC 2023 - Country: Italy - Capacity: 0.75

A magnificent place. A hilly setting, typical for the Friuli region. It is here that the grapes destined to give life to the wines of the Felluga family's Russiz Superiore estate ripen. Magnificent soils, consisting of an alternation of marl (limestone loams and clays) and sandstone (cemented sands). These are ideal places for growing quality grapes, thanks also to the fortunate microclimate, influenced by the large temperature swings between day and night that give the wines freshness and minerality. Strictly manual harvesting, after picking, the grapes are separated from the stalks. The juice and pulp undergo cold maceration, then a gentle pressing that allows separation from the skins. Approximately 15% of the must is fermented in oak barrels, the remaining 85% in steel tanks. The wine is then left to rest for about eight months on the lees and then in the bottle. Straw yellow colour with shades tending towards green. The nose is characterised by intense and elegant vegetal and floral notes. It is easy to distinguish sage, pepper, acacia flowers and grapefruit. In the mouth, on the other hand, it delivers beautiful emotions thanks to its intense flavour. A structured and balanced white wine. The perfect balance between freshness and savouriness make it an ideal wine for the whole meal. ...
