A wine with great personality and an exceptional and intense spirit. It is straw-yellow with green reflections. The bouquet contains notes of sage, green pepper, hazelnut and white peach. The intense and fragrant overtones of tropical fruit, mint and pepper reiterate on the palate.
It pairs with traditional Friuli dishes such as omelette with herbs, vegetable soups, wild asparagus and Adriatic fish.
Serving Temperature: 11 – 13 °C
