Descrizione

The Friuli Colli Orientali DOC Sauvignon di Torre Rosazza is an elegant and refined white wine, an authentic expression of the Friulian terroir. Produced in the eastern hills of Friuli Venezia Giulia, this denomination is famous for its breezy climate and mineral-rich soil, ideal for the Sauvignon grape variety. The winemaking process favors low-temperature fermentation that preserves freshness and aromatic intensity. The result is a complex bouquet, highlighting herbal notes, hints of green pepper, and delicate floral nuances, accompanied by a light citrus touch. On the palate, it is harmonious, with good structure and a pleasant sapidity that balances the lively acidity. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes, shellfish, and fresh cheeses, this Sauvignon di Torre Rosazza enchants with its distinctive personality and its ability to express the unique character of Collio Friulano.
