Description
Terre Alte originated in 1981 and is to be considered one of Italy's most prestigious white wines. The harmonious blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon grapes, cultivated at Rosazzo in the historic Terre Alte vineyards, creates an elegant and rich wine with intense fruity and floral aromas. It is a wine of great structure and, with ageing, acquires a tertiary evolution of remarkable complexity.
