Origin

The Sauvignon Blanc Collio is produced in the Collio DOC region, located in the Friuli Venezia Giulia area of northeastern Italy. This region is renowned for its unique microclimate and hilly terrain, which contribute to the wine's distinctive character.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety, known for its aromatic intensity and crisp acidity.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and gently pressed to preserve delicate aromas. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to maintain freshness and aromatic complexity. The wine is then aged briefly on fine lees to enhance texture before bottling.
