Description

Made entirely from Sauvignon grapes cultivated in the areas of Sauternes and Bordeaux, from where the grapes have been imported to Friuli where they have found ideal conditions in both soil and climate. The grapes are handpicked and pressed in a soft press after which there follows a brief period of decantation in total absence of sulphur dioxide. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under a controlled temperature. The ageing takes place on the lees for 8 months. Overall, a very complex white wine with green notes of mint and nettle that are interwoven with exotic and salty notes in perfect balance.

Producer

The Schiopetto winery is one of the oldest wineries in the Collio region, which includes terraced vineyards between the towns of Gorizia and Cividale with a vineyard area of around 1,600 hectares. Founder and namesake Mario Schiopetto, who died at the age of 72, is referred to as a pioneer of Friulian viticulture. The farm, situated on the rolling hills of Capriva del Friuli in the province of Gorizia, is now owned by Dottore Emilio Rotolo, who also owns the Volpe Pasini winery.
