This wine reveals a clear aromatic profile where hints of citrus, apple, pear and white peach intertwine, accompanied by fresh notes of white flowers and light herbaceous nuances. On the palate, it is harmonious and enveloping, supported by a \u003cstrong\u003egood body\u003c\/strong\u003e and well-integrated acidity, closing with a clean persistence and a \u003cstrong\u003edry finish\u003c\/strong\u003e. Fermented in stainless steel and aged on the lees, this wine is an ideal choice for an \u003cstrong\u003eaperitif\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as for pairing with fish dishes and white meats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProvenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vines are grown in Oleis di Manzano and on the Spilimbergo plain, at an altitude of approximately 130 metres. The Friuli Grave territory is distinguished by its \u003cstrong\u003ealluvial soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, composed of a sandy surface layer resting on a deep bed of limestone and dolomitic pebbles. This particular soil structure encourages significant temperature fluctuations between day and night, which are essential for preserving the \u003cstrong\u003earomatic elegance\u003c\/strong\u003e of the Chardonnay. The temperate climate, protected by the Friulian Dolomites and mitigated by the influence of the Adriatic Sea, ensures balanced ripening of the grapes. Torre Rosazza manages its vineyards following strict \u003cstrong\u003eorganic practices\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduction Process\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest begins in early September, with yields of 100 quintals per hectare. In the cellar, the bunches undergo \u003cstrong\u003esoft pressing\u003c\/strong\u003e to extract high-quality musts. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a fundamental technical choice to maintain the integrity of the primary aromas. Subsequently, the wine undergoes \u003cstrong\u003eageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for at least three months, also in stainless steel. This period enriches the \u003cstrong\u003edepth of flavour\u003c\/strong\u003e and confers a solid structure, ensuring a persistent and balanced sip.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Fascinating Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1972, Torre Rosazza enhances the \u003cstrong\u003egravelly alluvial soils\u003c\/strong\u003e of the Friuli Grave DOC, which are ideal for bestowing elegance on the wines.
