Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC Pinot Gris 2022 (750 ml.) - Livio Felluga
Pinot Gris by Livio Felluga is a wine that comes from a noble vine that derives from a bud mutation of Pinot Noir and, preferring cool climates, finds its ideal habitat in the hills. The vinification gives the wine finesse and elegance, maintaining the faint coppery reflections that unmistakably characterize its color. It is certainly the best-known Friulian wine in the world. Fine and intense bouquet with hints of apricot and white peach fused with notes of orange peel. Aromas of fresh spices and sweet notes such as lemon cream and wildflower honey. When tasted, it has a good structure, with fresh progression, expressing sensations of yellow melon pulp, papaya, Golden apple, apricot and sage. It closes with a persistent, savory finish with citrus hints.

A unique name in the Italian production scene, as well as a symbol of a region and its wines, it is easy to understand how much the story of Livio Felluga intertwines with that of a whole territory. A story that has as its protagonist a family that survived two world wars, which has witnessed the change of borders around it, and then decides to settle on the gentle buttresses of the Friuli hills. It is here that, not far from Cormòns in the province of Gorizia, Livio Felluga had to undertake a new battle to resurrect the hill, convinced that only the rebirth of quality cultivation could bring life back to the Friulian countryside. With great courage he began to rearrange the old vineyards and to plant new ones, introducing innovative ideas and methods. A hard work, made of stubbornness and passion, which over the years will lead him to create one of the most beautiful and significant business realities of the Peninsula, fully acquiring the unanimously recognized title of re-founder of the Friulian wine tradition.
Currently the company can count on a large area under vines, which from the denomination of the Collio up to that of the Colli Orientali del Friuli, covers about 155 hectares. In the vineyard, the varieties encountered are both native and international, for which we have Friulano and pinot bianco, chardonnay and ribolla giallo, sauvignon blanc and pinot grigio, picolit and refosco, pignolo and merlot . Grapes that are transformed into what are now called as the "wines of the geographical map", which has always been reproduced on the label and depicting an old map of the farms.
And then here comes the "Vertigo", the "Nuaré" and the "Sharis", then gradually all the others, up to the "Terre Alte": wines from a cellar that still shines today for quality and for the territorial character it manages to express, a true ambassador of the best Friulian - and therefore Italian - whites all over the world.
Address:
Via Risorgimento, 1 - 34071 Cormòns Fraz. Brazzano (GO), Italy
Colore: oro antico, acceso e brillante con lievi riflessi ramati.
Profumo: fine ed intenso con sentori di albicocca e pesca bianca fuse una nota di scorza di arancia. Il bouquet molto aggraziato è impreziosito da aromi di spezie fresche e note dolci quali crema al limone e miele millefiori.
Gusto: di buona struttura, con fresca progressione. Dal ritorno aromatico accattivante, esprime sensazioni di polpa di melone giallo, papaya, mela Golden, albicocca e salvia. Chiude con un finale persistente, sapido e dai richiami agrumati.
