2022 I Clivi Friulano San Pietro

Producer: I Clivi 
Region: Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy 
Varietal: Friulano 
Year: 2022   

Importer Notes: 

"Although it is now known that Friulano, formerly called Tocai Friulano, is not related to Sauvignon Blanc (it is in fact the same as the minor Bordelais variety Sauvignonasse, according to Jancis Robinson), it does show clear herbal notes. I love Sauvignon Blanc, but this wine shows a more broadly useful balance between herbal flavors and nutty or citrus notes. Bright, fresh, complex, delicious. This was the wine that alerted me to the quality of the estate when it was suggested to me by Taylor Parsons at Osteria Mozza." 

Alcohol: 12.5%
