Elio Bianco

White wines

This is our most important white wine with a production of around 2000 bottles each year.

This wine is the tradition of our production because it was the ELIO’s favourite wine but also because it’s made from Tocai friulano grapes, the typical authoctonous grape variety of our territory.

 

This wine is obtained by a short maceration on the skins for 3 days to improve the flavours and the taste. It’s also matured for 10 months on the lees after fermentation before bottling.

 

CHARACTERISTICS:

The color is a magnificent straw yellow. The nose is very interesting with a bouquet of flowers, mixed with dried fruits and a spicy aroma in the end like laurel and chamomile. At the palate it’s balanced with a long lasting and a light taste of bitter almonds.

 

FOOD PAIRING:

Pleasant at any time of day, especially in an aperitif. At the table it’s better with white meats, egg dishes, risottos with herbs, fish and seafood. It’s also very good with shellfish and soups.
