2025 Via Alpina Sauvignon Blanc Colli Orientali del Friuli Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy EST This wine is taken fromComing from two organically farmed vineyards in Rosazzo and Prepotto (Friuli Colli Orientali), with southeast and east southeast exposures that Giampaolo Venica favors for their precision and leaner style. Vines are 15 to 20 years old, the result of massal selections for added complexity. Grapes are destemmed, lightly pressed without maceration, and aged eight months in stainless steel on the lees with btonnage.
