Complex & Bright
The Friulano grape is indigenous to Friuli and was one of the first made by Mario Schiopetto, as the first production of this Friulano was 1965. This is a full-bodied white with a savory characteristic that is versatile with pairings and has a signature high acidity. Fermentation is in stainless steel for 10-12 days then aged 8 months then aged in moves to its final stage in bottle for a minimum of 5 months. Notes of almond, apricot, and pear dominate the palate while the nose is blossomed with herbaceousness, seaweed and grapefruit. Pair this with anything from cured meats, vongole pasta, game and chicken - this is a white to be served with your mains.

Fragrant & Complex
These grapes are grown in the historic hills of Friuli laden in marly soil composed of clay, silt and mineral rich limestone. This aromatic white is harvested by hand then pressed at a low temperature with no sulphur dioxide giving rich notes of honeysuckle, jasmine and white peach with dominant notes of seashell on the nose. Aged in stainless steel for 8 months then in bottle for a minimum of 5 months giving this wine its distinct creamy richness with the perfect balance of sweet freshness.

Soft & Elegant
Although this Sauv Blanc is soft and elegant, do not be fooled - there is a ton of structure here. Notes of fresh flowers with hints of exotic nuances. The long finish and plush acidity is the stand out with this particular wine. The terroir comes through the wine with green notes on the nose, gravel on the palate and green hues blending with its straw yellow colour.
