Sauvignon Blanc Collio DOC 2023 – Livon

Friulian elegance in an aromatic version | Pure Sauvignon Blanc from the heart of Collio

Livon's Sauvignon Collio DOC is an aromatic and structured white wine, made with 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes, hand-picked from the hilly vineyards of Dolegna del Collio (GO). Here, amidst marl and clay and careful viticulture, this international grape variety finds one of its highest Italian expressions.

The grapes, grown with the close Guyot system, undergo a cold pre-fermentation maceration for 8 hours in a horizontal press to enhance the primary aromas. After fermentation at 18°C in stainless steel, the wine ages for 5 months on the lees in the same containers, followed by a brief bottle refinement.
