Abbazia di Rosazzo
D.O.C.G.

TASTING NOTES: Appearance: intense straw yellow. Nose: elegant and refined, gently intertwined fruity notes of flowering plants, quince, with aromatic herbs and spices such as mint, rosemary, anise, pink peppercorn, coriander, nutmeg and flower hints of oleander and almond. Palate: lively, pleasantly savory; lime, bergamot; gentle finish of crème caramel and chopped hazelnuts. TECHNICAL NOTES: The grapes are carefully destemmed and left to cold macerate. Next, the fruit is soft crushed. The must is then cleared by allowing it to settle and then fermented in stainless steel tanks with yeasts selected in Friuli. After three days, the wine is racked into oak casks where the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is completed. The wine matures in oak casks where yeast lysis took place. In July 2013 the wine was bottled. Tertiary aromas will develop over the years to come.
