SAUVIGNON 'INDRA' GIRLAN 2024 DESCRIPTION

soil, clayey and gravelly, of morainic origin, and the proximity to the Eastern Alps, make these hills a unique terroir in the world. The harvest of the grapes along the gentle slopes where the Sauvignon grows and matures is carried out strictly by hand, in order to select only the best bunches. After a short maceration and a whole cluster pressing, the fermentation of the grapes and the subsequent aging on fine lees take place exclusively in stainless steel tanks, with the aim of enhancing and highlighting the typical organoleptic qualities of this prestigious grape variety in a simple, straightforward, and immediate way.

particularly suitable for pairing and enhancing dishes based on fish and shellfish, dishes with asparagus or vegetables in general but also to provide pleasure and elegance at the time of the aperitif.

When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
Glass
Medium open goblet
Perfect for young and medium bodied white wines which don't require excessive oxygenation to open. The opening, slightly tighter than the body of the glass, favors the concentration of aromas towards the nose, enhancing the perception of aromas and limiting the dispersion

You can let it rest in the cellar comfortably for 2-3 years
