Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc, known for its freshness and aromaticity, transforms into an entirely new experience when vinified as an orange wine. This winemaking style, which involves fermenting the grapes in contact with the skins, gives Sauvignon Blanc an unexpected complexity and depth, while still maintaining its characteristic liveliness. Originally from the Loire region of France and more recently celebrated for its sparkling expressions from New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc adapts with surprising versatility to this production technique, offering new nuances of taste and aroma.

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes for orange wines are carefully selected to ensure the best balance between sugars and acidity. During winemaking, contact with the skins allows the extraction of tannins and pigments that give the wine an amber, almost golden hue, and a fuller structure compared to the classic white style. The production areas successfully experimenting with this technique include the hills of Friuli Venezia Giulia and some regions of Slovenia, where producers have enthusiastically embraced the artisanal and natural approach.

The organoleptic profile of an orange Sauvignon Blanc is an explosion of sensations. On the nose, you can perceive notes of exotic fruits like mango and papaya, accompanied by hints of ripe citrus and a touch of aromatic herbs. In the mouth, the wine presents a full body and a pleasant tannic structure, balanced by a lively freshness that invites a second sip. The finish is long and persistent, with an aftertaste reminiscent of dried fruits and sweet spices.

Orange-style vinified Sauvignon Blanc is a perfect choice for those wishing to explore new oenological horizons. Thanks to its versatility, it pairs beautifully with Asian cuisine, aged cheeses, and mushroom-based dishes. This wine represents a bold reinterpretation of a classic grape variety, capable of surprising and fascinating both long-time enthusiasts and newcomers to the wine world.
