Villa Chiopris Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Friuli-Venezia Giulia, ItalyThe DOC Friuli Grave, Villa Chiopris Sauvignon, reflects its stony alluvial soils, offering a fresh, clean, spare style. Machine harvested and cold settled, it is all stainless steel fermented, hitting the palate with a sage scented, bell pepper nose, lean mineral green fruit, and a twist of bitterness. Ready to drink and best with creamy or buttery seafood dishes. The grapes are harvested by machine, then steeped in a cold horizontal tank. Villa Chiopris is situated where the plain meets the eastern foothills of Friuli. Until the end of the last century, the property was owned by the Hausbrandt family from Trieste, producers of the famous coffee. Today Villa Chiopris has been restored to its former glory by the Livon family.Tasted: 17 March 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $35.99 | 750ml | Private wine shops |
