Description
A dry still white wine from the Colli Orientali del Friuli, 13% ABV, produced by Livio Felluga, 2023 vintage. Blend of Chardonnay, Picolit, and Pinot Bianco. This wine is born from the passion of Livio Felluga, who since 1956 has linked his name to the production of high-quality wines, bearing the unmistakable Carta Geografica label. The grapes are delicately destemmed and left to macerate for a short period. They are then softly pressed, and the resulting must is clarified by decantation. The resulting must ferments at a controlled temperature in small French oak barrels. After fermentation, the wine is aged on the lees in the small oak barrels for approximately ten months. Intense straw yellow, with a refined, broad, complex bouquet, sweet and spicy fruity, with a clear mineral note, hints of pineapple, candied citrus, iris, hyacinth, aromatic herbs, walnut husk and pleasant woodiness.
