The two Friulano de I Clivi crus are located in two distinct vineyards, a few kilometres apart, which fall within two different appellations of origin and also in two separate provinces: one in the Collio Goriziano and the other in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, covering a total area of 12 hectares. These two vineyards are named Brazan and Galea respectively and are rooted in soils whose geological composition is practically identical; it is therefore the microclimate, linked mainly to the winds, that is the determining factor in the differences in character perceptible in the wines. Galea comes from 70-year-old vines. Like Brazan, it follows a production process that takes place entirely in stainless steel, with an 18-month ageing on the fine lees, during which the white wine is enriched with aromatic and flavour components. 100ml: E = 330kJ/79kcal
The nose immediately evokes flint and cut grass, before giving way to a dense, structured palate, consistently underpinned by a freshness and savouriness that make this a product of the highest quality.
A bottle to uncork for an aperitif with friends, as well as to pair with shellfish and fish dishes, including river fish, or elaborate first courses.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 10–12°C.
