This award-winning blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon grapes must be considered one of the most prestigious Italian whites. Intense straw yellow with golden reflections. On the nose, the bouquet of fruity, floral, mineral, with spicy notes are complex with exotic fruits, citrus, white peach, sweet almond, Mediterranean scrub, sage, elderflower, hawthorn, marjoram, and vanilla. On the palate it is elegant, enveloping, juicy, full, warm, fresh, sapid, and mineral, full-bodied, all in a perfect balance. The aftertaste of candied citrus fruits, aromatic herbs and vanilla lingers for a very long time.
A landmark wine for the region, the Livio Felluga 2017 Rosazzo Terre Alte is a careful blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon packaged in a heavy bottle with the estate's distinctive geographic map depicted on the front label. The 2017 vintage threw some big challenges at vintners with hot summer temperatures and excessive rains in September. However, white varieties such as the ones used in this blend managed a good window for optimal ripening. The wine is deceptive, and I mean that in a good way. On first examination, the bouquet feels fruity and lean. But as the fibre of the wine settles on the palate, you are made aware of the unexpected complexity and depth delivered in a second wave. The wine rushes with intensity. Fruit, peach, and honey segue to crushed sandstone and dried basil. This is a keeper.

Livio Felluga is a renowned wine producer located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy. The history of the Felluga family in winemaking dates back to the late 1800s, when Livio's grandfather, Marco Felluga, began producing wine in Istria, which was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After World War II, the family was forced to flee Istria and settled in Friuli, where they continued their winemaking tradition.

Livio Felluga himself began working in the family business in the 1950s and quickly gained a reputation for his innovative winemaking techniques. He was one of the first in the region to introduce stainless steel tanks for fermentation, which allowed for better control over the winemaking process. He also experimented with different grape varieties, including Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, which were not traditionally grown in the region.

Today, Livio Felluga produces a range of high-quality wines, including both white and red varieties. Their flagship wine is the Terre Alte, a blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes. This wine is aged in oak barrels for 12 months, giving it a complex and rich flavor profile. Other notable wines from Livio Felluga include the Pinot Grigio, which is crisp and refreshing with notes of citrus and green apple, and the Rosazzo, a blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes that is aged in oak barrels for 18 months.

Livio Felluga is known for their commitment to sustainable winemaking practices. They use only organic fertilizers in their vineyards and have implemented a number of measures to reduce their carbon footprint. They also work closely with local farmers to promote biodiversity in the region.

Overall, Livio Felluga is a producer that is highly regarded for their innovative winemaking techniques and commitment to sustainability. Their wines are complex and flavorful, and are sure to impress even the most discerning wine connoisseur.
