Livio Felluga 2008 Terre Alte White (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

Country: Italy / Terre Alte
Variety: White Blend Northeastern Italy
Winery: Livio Felluga / Colli Orientali del Friuli

One of Italy’s greatest white wines, Terre Alte is a blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon now packaged in a screwcap bottle. The wine shows the aromatic purity and intensity of Sauvignon with the structure and overall creaminess of the other two varieties. It’s gorgeous on all levels with a smoky, roasted almond note on the close.
