The Sauvignon from Toros is a wine produced in the wonderful territory of Collio Goriziano, one of the most vocated areas of our peninsula for the cultivation of white grape varieties. The vineyards of the Toros estate are located in the hilly area near Cormons, particularly suitable for the cultivation of Sauvignon Blanc. Vinified only in steel, the wine expresses the classic floral and fruity aromas and the pleasant aromaticity that has made this French grape variety famous worldwide. It is a mineral and fresh Sauvignon Blanc, which offers great immediacy and pleasantness of drink.
The Sauvignon wine from Toros is the fruit of a small piece of land, located on the border with Slovenia, namely the Collio Goriziano, which enjoys a very particular microclimate. It is sheltered from the northern winds by the Julian Alps and open to the gentle breezes of the Adriatic to the south. The sunny exposures on gentle hilly slopes allow the clusters to ripen perfectly. The true treasure of the region, however, lies in the subsoil: the soils are composed of Eocene origin Flysch,a sedimentation of marls and sandstones of ancient marine origin, particularly rich in minerals, which the Friulians call "ponca". It is in this land that the Toros family cultivates a property of about ten hectares with vineyards of Friulano, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc. Mineral and fresh wines that reflect the great white wine tradition of Collio.
The white Sauvignon from Toros is a Friulian wine that comes from a gentle pressing of the grapes followed by the fermentation of the must in stainless steel tanks and aging for several months in steel vats before being bottled. In the glass, it presents itself with a straw yellow color with bright greenish reflections. The bouquet is characterized by aromas reminiscent of floral notes, hints of aromatic herbs, medicinal herbs, the vegetal nuances of green pepper, ripe yellow fruit, and tropical fruit. On the palate, it is intense, rich, and expressive, with vibrant freshness, finishing on persistent and pleasantly savory notes.
