Madame Sauvignon Collezione Famiglia Venezia Giulia Igp 2021 - Ronco dei Tassi

The Sauvignon vine originates from the Gironde, near the Sauternes, in the Bordeaux region of France. It has been present in Friuli Venezia Giulia since 1800, here it was grown and produced almost exclusively on the Collio and Colli Orientali hills.The Collio hills of Eocene origin are made up mostly of marl and sandstone. The proximity to the sea and the woods surrounding the vineyards make it a place with a perfectly fresh and breezy microclimate, which makes it one of the most suitable for exalting the qualitative characteristics of this variety in an original way. The vineyard is located in the highest areas facing east of Mount Quarin and the hills surrounding the town of Cormons.The harvest is done manually in the first week of September The destemmed grapes are crushed and left to macerate for about 18 hours at 10°C, the must obtained from the soft pressing is statically decanted for one day, and fermented at 16/17°C. After fermentation, the wine obtained remains on the noble lees and aged in oak tonneau for 5 monthsThe color in the glass is a beautiful bright shade of straw yellow, with light greenish reflections. On the nose the scent is very aromatic but not annoying, it is elegant and complex, with fruity notes of mango and passion fruit, but also of white peach, with vivid hints of sweet elderflower.The flavor is excellent, and it is what one would expect from what this wine promises to the nose. The entrance is very balanced, with a fresh and dry flavour, with a long persistence and a marked sapidity.It is a wine that goes well with appetizers with ham, first courses with courgettes or asparagus, shellfish and fish dishes with sauce.
