Located within the production area of the DOC Friuli Colli Orientali, in Corno di Rosazzo, the Valentino Butussi winery was born in 1910 and bears the name of its founder and progenitor of the family. Valentino Butussi is a representative company of the territory that has chosen the path of organic viticulture, obtaining the certification in 2013. In the cellar, the steel containers are intended for vintage wines, while for the selections, the use of cement is preferred and large barrels of untoasted wood (from three to sixty hectoliters), for the reserve whites the traditional Friulian seven hundred liter barrel is used.

The White Angel is a Cuvè, it is aged in wooden barrels and is cared for and harvested according to the lunar tides. It is fresh, fruity and smooth to the taste. The palate shows spring flowers and a hint of caramelized citrus. At the same time, the grapes give the cuvée a beautiful minerality and volume. We can recommend this great expansion with seafood, shellfish or grilled fish.

A Riserva with an austere and solemn character, which reaches the qualitative peaks of the entire range created by the Valentino Butussi farm. This "Santuari" is a Cabernet Sauvignon DOC where the balance between taste and aroma makes the sip incisive and expressive, denoting its great evolutionary potential over time. The carefully selected grapes, after harvesting, ferment in oak barrels thanks to the use of indigenous yeasts. Then we move on to the refinement, carried out for two years in oak barrels with a capacity of 300 liters; after bottling, the wine further ages in glass for 12 months. A label that interprets the Colli Orientali del Friuli terroir with a niche production, where excellence and aging capacity go hand in hand, giving us a red wine of great value.

The Friuli Colli Orientali DOC "Madonna D'Aiuto - Historic Label" by Butussi comes from Pinot Grigio grapes harvested manually; spontaneously fermented and aged, then in oak for 8-10 months, it is produced only in the best years. Of clear gastronomic versatility, it is appreciated for a great balance between freshness and softness; it will also acquire complexity over time.

Intense straw yellow, bright with golden reflections. Slightly persistent perlage. Lively nose with fruity notes of ripe pears and apples and candied oranges. Light and enveloping on the palate, final citrus notes that linger.

In addition to the great classics of the Friuli area, always declined with skill and refinement, the Valentino Butussi farm also delights in the production of a bubble, creating a Spumante Brut made according to the Martinotti method. Punctual in presenting subtle and light aromas, which open to a well-defined and refreshing sip, this "Ribolla Gialla" is confirmed as an excellent companion for more informal aperitifs.

Before the harvest, which usually takes place during the second and third ten days of September, the grapes are carefully selected in the vineyard. Subsequently, a gentle pressing is carried out, to then move on to alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature in stainless steel for about a week. The refinement takes place on the fine lees, for about 7 months in order to increase its complexity. In the glass Collio Ribolla Gialla shows a pale straw yellow color with slight greenish reflections. Elegant fruity aromas of white peach, apple and pear blend with floral aromas of rose and spring flowers to create an enveloping and seductive bouquet. An intriguing and pleasant wine on the palate; thanks to a rather acid taste, the result is a glass characterized by a remarkable freshness to be savored to the full. A versatile white that is well suited to many preparations in the kitchen including dishes based on white meats, vegetables, first courses with not too tasty sauces and fried fish. Also excellent as an aperitif wine.

The slightly bitter finish makes this white excellent in combination with dishes based on white meats, grilled fish, vegetables and first courses with delicate sauces.
