Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio DOC - Eugenio Collavini

In the glass, the Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio from the pen of Eugenio Collavini has a brilliantly shimmering light yellow color. Poured into a white wine glass, this white wine from the Old World presents wonderfully expressive aromas of orange blossom, honeysuckle, lime and jasmine, rounded off by green peppers, lovage and forest floor.

The Eugenio Collavini Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio delights with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with 2.6 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so, despite its dryness, this Italian naturally delights with the finest balance. Excellent taste does not necessarily need residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this light-footed white wine is wonderfully light, crisp and melting. Thanks to the balanced fruit acidity, the Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio caresses the palate with a velvety feel without lacking any juicy liveliness. On the finish, this youthful wine from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia wine-growing region impresses with its considerable length. There are again hints of acacia and lime.

Vinification of the Eugenio Collavini Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio

This elegant white wine from Italy is made from the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety. When they are perfectly ripe, the grapes for the Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio are harvested exclusively by hand without the help of coarse and less selective grape harvesters. After manual harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Once fermentation is complete, the Sauvignon Blanc Fumat Collio can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months.
