Livio Felluga's Crus are produced through massalselection. This involves propagating selected vines in particularly favourable sites in order to renew vineyards with particularly high-quality stock and to further improve the quality of single-varietal wines.

Livio Felluga would often stand at dusk, gazing up at the sky with a cigar in his hand, observing the weather. The Friulano vines from which this cru is made were planted as early as 1963; they produce medium-sized, loosely clustered grapes. The yeast ageing and maturation in terracotta tanks give Sigar its depth and pronounced spiciness and minerality. Golden yellow with greenish hues. The complex bouquet reveals subtle saffron notes, candied lemon peel, dried apricots and lemon zest. On the palate, it is grippy, compact and fresh, with a seductive spiciness and a salty note, followed by balsamic notes in the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE
