Luigi Veronelli affectionately called him "Il Contadino". And in doing so, he captured the essence of Livio Felluga better than any label ever could. A man from Istria who survived two world wars, saw borders shift, lost his homeland and settled on the rolling hills of Rosazzo in the late 1930s to give Friulian viticulture a new future. What this winegrower has built up is now one of the leading names in the north-east. The Rosato is, in the estate’s own words, "a new way of expressing the most distinctive feature we have: the character of our terroir." 85% Merlot, 15% Pinot Nero, grown on flysch soils of Eocene origin – that characteristic alternation of marl and sandstone which distinguishes the Collio and Rosazzo from the rest of Italy. Pinot Nero is harvested at the end of August – earlier than Merlot, which is not harvested until mid-September. The grapes are placed in small crates, gently destemmed, cold-pressed, and the must clarified by decanting. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and terracotta, with ageing on the lees.
A delicate, luminous salmon pink. On the nose: wild rose, wisteria, honeysuckle, wild strawberry, lychee, raspberry and pomegranate – — subtle and of the highest calibre. Fresh and harmonious on the palate, with an elegant finish. The unique terroir of Rosazzo expressed in its delicate pink form. SUPERIORE.DE
