Vie Di Romance is a prestigious family winery located in the heart of the Friuli region - one of the most famous areas in Italy for white wines. The winery is known for its philosophy of terroir expression and minimal intervention in vinification, with the “Pierre” series coming from the eponymous plot with a pronounced mineral character.

Varietal composition: Sauvignon Blanc

Terroir: The vineyards are located near the town of Mariano del Friuli, at about 30–35 meters above sea level, on stony-clay soils, rich in minerals and silica inclusions. The climate is temperate-continental with pronounced daily temperature differences and good ventilation from the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, which ensures a long growing season and preservation of freshness and acidity in the grapes.

Vinification: The grapes are hand-picked at the end of August. After a short cold maceration, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a low temperature to preserve freshness and varietal characteristics. The wine is aged for about 8 months on fine lees, without malolactic fermentation, to achieve a balance between aromatic purity and structure.

Organoleptic characteristics

Aroma: Complex and intense nose with notes of peach, citrus peel, anise, fennel and minerals, combined with floral and exotic nuances.

Taste: Medium to full-bodied, with a tight structure, bright acidity and a long mineral finish, enriched with fruity juiciness and spicy accents.

Food pairings: Suitable for mussels, oysters, shrimp, grilled fish, seafood with cream sauce, as well as fresh salads and goat cheese.

Serving temperature: 8°–10°C

Aging potential: Up to 5 years after harvest
