Il Carpino Vigna Runc Sauvignon Collio 2023

A 2023 Collio Sauvignon from Il Carpino, a family estate at Sovenza, in San Floriano, in Friuli Venezia Giulia. It belongs to the Vigna Runc line, which comes from the estate's younger vineyards. The wine is made in steel only, which keeps it fresh and intense, and the Sauvignon draws a mineral character from the marl soils of the Collio. It is bright pale straw in colour. The nose offers mineral and smoky notes alongside green, herbal hints and elderflower. The palate is fresh, lively and crisp, with a long, persistent mineral thread.
