Sirch Sauvignon 2023

Sauvignon is an important grape variety of French origin, originating in the Loire Valley, whose name derives from the word “savage”, i.e. wild. Introduced into Friuli Venezia Giulia during the Habsburg domination in the 1880s, it has become a wine of authentic Friulian tradition. As far back as 1891, it was said that the Sauvignon Blanc grown in sandstone-marl soils (ponca) had “A robust vegetation and a mediocre, but constant and regular production (...) When drunk, it showed a fineness of flavor and fragrance and an ensemble so harmonious and at the same time generous and distinct, that it was classified as the first white wine of our province.”
