Cûr Blanc
Friuli Colli Orientali Doc
The Friulian white of days gone by
Tasting notes
Brilliant straw yellow with golden reflections.
Intense and broad, of great elegance and persistence, with hints of honey and white wildflowers wet with rain, and citrus and mineral notes.
Full-bodied and harmonious, of great persistence and elegance, with a strong mineral, savoury accent. Notes of ripe Golden apple and dried fruit blend with balsamic hints of sage and thyme. The finish brings the typical slightly tannic almond note and an exceptionally long, soft, saline close.
