Guerra Albano
For many generations “Guerra Albano” a family winery has been producing DOC Colli Orientali del Friuli quality wines in Montina di Torreano. The vocation of this area for producing quality wines dates back to Roman times when the Centurion Taurus settled down in a district not far from Forum Julii (Cividale del Friuli). Here he founded a new town which took his name: Torreano. Dario Guerra represents the latest wine making generation at this small but quality-inspired cellar. Under his guidance wines of exceptional elegance and intensity are being crafted. This is not surprising when one considers Dario’s declared understanding of his mission: “being a winemaker is not a passing fad but rather a way of life something we feel inside us; something our parents passed on to us as part of our culture and history”.
Description
Straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections, this Sauvignon Blanc has an array of intense fruity scents reminiscent of tomato leaf, peach and lemon. On the palate, it is aromatically layered and precisely characterized with round, crisp flavours and lingering aftertaste.
Food Pairing
Excellent as an aperitif or with rich fish dishes, vegetable soups, asparagus risotto or omelettes with aromatic herbs.
