Product Notes

Livio Felluga Terre Alte boasts opulent layers of rich, succulent fruit and a backdrop of exotic spices. This prestigious Italian white wine is a lovely blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco, and Sauvignon Blanc, offering an intoxicating dance of tropical fruit, melon, and zesty citrus flavours. Known for its exquisite balance and stunning length, this wine further enthralls with bright acidity and a luxurious, silky mouthfeel. The sophisticated mineral core and impressively long finish make it a superstar amongst the Friuli Venezia Giulia region's whites. Enjoy it with grilled seafood, spicy dishes or mature cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Intense straw yellow in colour. On the nose, this wine is extremely complex and rich. Aromas of exotic fruit combine perfectly with notes of bergamot, citrus peel and sweet almond. Full-bodied, structured and layered, the palate has a refreshing savoury minerality followed by a long, complex finish, fruity notes of orange, white peaches closing on a lovely vegetal hint of sage and white pepper.
