Sauvignon Villa Locatelli Angoris is produced within the Angoris Estate, just outside Cormons, in the DOC area which takes its name from the Isonzo river that crosses it a few kilometers to the south. Inserted into a mosaic of cultivated fields and forested woods, there are 60 hectares of vineyards on the estate. The soil is not very calcareous and is rich in noble clays that mingle with red gravel; this area is one of the driest areas of Friuli, somewhat hot for wine production. “Villa Locatelli” is a new, dynamic line in perfect harmony with the freshness and liveliness typical of the wines produced in this DOC. The Sauvignon harvest takes place at the beginning of September; after a short cold maceration, the fermentation of the must takes place at a controlled temperature. The wine is then left to rest for 5 months in stainless steel containers.

SAUVIGNON ISONZO VILLA LOCATELLI ANGORIS: TASTING NOTES

Sauvignon Villa Locatelli Angoris is straw yellow with golden refractions. The nose is intense and aromatic with notes of bell pepper, tomato leaf, pineapple, white peach, mint, rosemary, marjoram, and thyme. In the mouth it is dry, of medium structure, well-balanced, and decidedly inviting. A very versatile wine, it is perfect with the local Regina di San Daniele salmon trout, seasoned with oil and white pepper.
