Vie di Romans Chardonnay 2019

Vie di Romans from Mariano del Friuli is one of Friuli’s leading estates and is known for expressive, long-lived white wines. The warm yet wind-exposed climate of the Isonzo plain enables optimal ripening, while cool nights preserve freshness. Soils of gravel, sand and mineral-rich alluvial sediments give the wines clear structure and complex aromatics. Chardonnay, Friulano, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio develop remarkable depth, creamy texture and precise minerality here. Vie di Romans is characterised by late harvesting, low yields and deliberate barrel work, resulting in complex, concentrated yet elegant wines. The estate is regarded as a benchmark for premium white wines from Friuli.

Friuli is regarded as a stronghold of elegant white wines. Between the Alps and the Adriatic, cool nights and mild days create aromatic, precise styles from varieties such as Friulano, Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio and Ribolla Gialla. Tradition and innovation meet here: from classically clear vinifications to characterful orange wines and refined sparkling wines.
