From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

A white wine from beautiful Italy. When you think of Italy, you immediately think of wine. Nowhere else in the world is so much wine produced as in this Southern European country. Every province and region has its own beautiful wines. Fruili, located in northeastern Italy, is one of them. This region is the birthplace of this Fornas Sauvignon Blanc. This refreshing white wine is truly unique in the world of Italian wines. While many Italian wines are based on a native grape, this time it's the international Sauvignon Blanc that takes center stage.

The vineyards are located in Fruili, east of Venice. Because it's situated further north, the climate is slightly cooler. This is perfect for growing the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Because the vineyards are relatively close to the Adriatic coast, they also receive the necessary freshness from the sea. This allows the Sauvignon Blanc grapes to ripen optimally. Consequently, the quality of this Fornas Sauvignon Blanc is sky-high.

Purity is the magic word for this white wine from Fornas. Only the finest and fullest bunches are allowed to be used in this wine. This makes the grape selection incredibly strict. However, you get so much in return. A perfect, incredibly balanced wine. The bouquet of Fornas Sauvignon Blanc is incredibly vibrant. As soon as you pour the wine, your nose is put to work: you smell green apple, gooseberries, and fresh grapefruit. Our mouths are already watering. The palate unfolds beautifully on the tongue. Aromas of fresh pear and soft apple emerge easily. Fresh nuances of citrus and grapefruit linger delightfully on the palate. A successful white wine from northern Italy.
