Tasting notes

This is widely regarded as a difficult vintage, not so much for the heat but for the heavy rain in September. Many white grapes, however, escaped the worst of it and emerged unscathed. The Lis Neris 2017 Friuli Isonzo Friulano La Vila shows the grape's characteristic golden colour with faint hints of green hidden somewhere within its luminosity. This is a zesty and cheerful white with a point of spicy piquancy that tastes like lime, tropical fruit and minty apple. There is a subtle touch of crushed oyster shell on the close. Try it with a conch chowder and freshly baked bread.

About this wine

Lis Neris is a family-owned winery located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy, and their 'La Vila' Friulano is a perfect example of the high-quality wines they produce. The Friulano grape is native to the Friuli region and is known for its delicate floral and almond aromas. The grapes for this wine are hand-harvested and carefully selected from the Vila vineyard, which is located in the heart of the Friuli region. The unique microclimate and soil composition of the vineyard give the wine its distinctive character.

The grapes are gently pressed and the juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine is then aged on its lees for several months to give it added complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a pale straw color with greenish highlights, and on the nose it has delicate floral and almond aromas, with hints of citrus and tropical fruit. On the palate, it is dry and crisp, with a refreshing acidity and a long, lingering finish.

'Lis Neris' 'La Vila' Friulano is a great match for seafood dishes, particularly shellfish and grilled fish. It also pairs well with white meats, such as chicken and pork, and is a great accompaniment to creamy pasta dishes. Overall, this is a beautifully crafted wine that showcases the unique character of the Friulano grape and the terroir of the Friuli region. It is a must-try for any wine lover looking for a high-quality Italian white wine.
