Livio Felluga Terre Alte Rosazzo DOCG 2015 Review

This wine is expensive. You will only buy this wine for a special occasion or to watch it age. When you do pop it you will be transported to the marl and sandstone hills of Rosazzo in the Colli Oreintalli of Friuli. In this wine you will taste the climate, the soil, the sun. You will swoon at the rich, mineral-driven ripe peach and pear fruit mingling with fresh floral and apricot notes with a flecks of jasmine and orange blossom. You will watch as your friends dine, sip and smile with raised eyebrows. If there was ever a wine for a well thought out fish meal, this is it.
