THE WINE
This Sauvignon, like all Confinis wines, is relatively young; in fact, the winery was founded in 2017 from the will of Francesco Rotolo, who, in addition to being a young winemaker, is also a son of art; in fact, his family created two wineries, Mario Schiopetto and Volpe Pasini.
Francesco selected a few hectares of hills between Capriva del Friuli and Cormons where, thanks to his experience, he wants to create fresh and pleasant wines with low alcohol content.
The Sauvignon grows in various places but finds its natural habitat in Friuli thanks to the fresh, bright and mild climate due to its proximity to the sea.
THE WINEMAKING
The harvest is strictly manual and occurs at the end of August . Once in the cellar, the must ferments in steel for a period ranging between 10 and 12 days at a controlled temperature of 15/16° C. The wine ages in steel for about seven months, and after bottling, it rests in the cellar for a few months before being placed on the market.
THE TASTING
Yellow with greenish reflections. The aroma is elegant, with light hints of tomato leaves that intertwine with mint notes and anise puffs. Very fresh on the palate, with a perfect correspondence between aromas and flavours. Persistent.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Excellent with both raw and cooked fish and with vegetables. Try it with the classic spaghetti with tomato sauce.
