The Rosazzo DOCG Terre Alte by Livio Felluga is one of the most refined and complex expressions from Friuli Venezia Giulia. A sublime blend of Friulano, Sauvignon, and Pinot Bianco, this wine is a true masterpiece of balance and elegance.

Originating from the hilly slopes of Rosazzo, an area known for its unique terroir, Terre Alte is the result of a meticulous selection of grapes. The vinification follows traditional methods that respect the specificity of each varietal, skillfully combining the characteristics of each grape. The result is a wine with great structure and longevity.

Visually, it presents a bright straw-yellow color, with golden reflections. On the nose, it offers a complex and intense bouquet, with notes of white pulp fruit, acacia honey, and aromatic nuances that recall citrus and aromatic herbs. The wise use of wood enriches the olfactory profile without overwhelming it, providing delicate notes of vanilla and toast.

On the palate, Rosazzo DOCG Terre Alte is rich, velvety, with well-balanced acidity that brings freshness and liveliness. The palate is enveloped by a soft texture and a complexity that unveils layers of ripe fruit, mineral hints, and a persistent aftertaste that invites another sip.

Ideal as an aperitif, this wine pairs perfectly with refined dishes such as seafood risottos, fish carpaccios, and blue cheeses. A wine that not only demonstrates Livio Felluga's mastery in creating high-quality wines but also celebrates the richness and diversity of the Friulian terrain.
