In San Lorenzo Isontino, you walk amongst the vines over stones. Beneath them lies a high plateau of deep gravel; the stones on the surface drain away water and store the day's heat, allowing the grapes to ripen fully. At night, the wind blows from the north-east, creating the significant temperature variations that give the wine its aroma and acidity. The Sauvignon is grown in San Lorenzo and Romans on calcareous gravel, at altitudes of between 25 and 60 metres, trained using the Guyot system with 5,200 to 5,600 vines per hectare. It ferments in stainless steel tanks and is then left on the lees for eight months, during which time the lees are stirred repeatedly.

Pale straw yellow. On the nose, grapefruit, peach and meadow flowers, with a hint of tomato leaf. On the palate, it is dry and crisp, fresh yet with a softness that does not detract from its bite; the finish is long and slightly salty. The stone provides the warmth, the wind the freshness, and this Sauvignon combines them to create a wine that pairs well with raw fish and fresh cheese. SUPERIORE.DE
