| Description: |
|
Flors di Uis is an unoaked blend of 55% Malvasia Istriana, 20% Rhine Riesling and 25% Tocai Friulano. It has a perfumed, waxy style, which lends itself remarkably well to ageing. It reveals superb depth in its exotic, floral aromatics and sweetly layered ripe fruit, with notable detail that plays off the wine’s richly opulent texture. The fruit for the Flors di Uis comes from south-facing vineyards at 29-34 metres above sea level. The 12-year-old vines are planted on gravel and ferrous soils and are Guyot trained. The grapes were hand picked and the wine was aged for 8 months in stainless steel before bottling. Vie di Romans is based in the heart of Isonzo, where Gianfranco Gallo’s 30 hectares of vineyards produce about 150,000 bottles a year. The soil is stony and glacial, and soaks up whatever rainfall there is like a sponge. This cool wind causes a big difference between day and night temperatures, and enables the grapes to accumulate a great deal of flavour. (6 x 75 cl)

Vie di Romans VIE di ROMANS Chardonnay Isonzo
Description: The Vie di Romans Chardonnay has Gianfranco Gallo’s hallmark richness, but the perfume and acidity on the wine is in stunning balance with the fruit. Gianfranco Gallo is a perfectionist. Not for him the unoaked, over-sweetened simplicity of many white wines from Friuli; he is more interested in richness, texture, length, complexity and the ability to age. For this reason, he releases his white wines 18 months after the vintage (6 x 75 cl)
