Tasting notes
Balanced, fresh and beautifully fragrant, the Lis Neris 2017 Friuli Isonzo Sauvignon Blanc Picol presents a terrific portrait of a grape. Sauvignon Blanc from northeast Italy tends to show softer, creamier lines with lots of passion and orchard fruit packed tight within. That's exactly what you get here. This isn't one of those green and punchy expressions of the grape that you might recognize from other parts of the wine world. Instead, the Picol prioritizes peach, honey and melon. It shows the enhanced but subtle fullness of the Friuli Isonzo growing area with its alluvial soils from the Isonzo River.

About this wine
Lis Neris is a family-run winery located in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy. Founded in the late 1960s by the Neris family, the winery has been producing high-quality wines for over 50 years. The Lis Neris Picol Sauvignon Blanc is a classic example of the winery's style.
This white wine is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes, grown in the Friuli Grave region. The grapes are harvested by hand and then fermented in stainless steel tanks. The result is a crisp and refreshing white wine with aromas of citrus, green apple, and white flowers. On the palate, the wine is light and fresh, with a pleasant acidity and a long, mineral finish.
The Lis Neris Picol Sauvignon Blanc is a great choice for pairing with seafood, salads, and light appetizers. Its crisp and refreshing flavor makes it a perfect accompaniment to any meal.
