Russiz Superiore Sauvignon Blanc Collio 2022 Review
This estate is known for making particularly age-worthy wines in Italy's Friuli region, and today sixth-generation Ilaria Felluga is at the helm continuing her father, Roberto, and grandfather, Marco’s legacy with wines like this incredible Sauvignon Blanc. Here you can experience the juicy roundness of the fruit with a soft, textured palate. The aromas are waxy with that prominent minerality ready to ease into a few years of maturing, reducing, and settling into the texture and structure found in the winery’s riserva bottling. You can drink this one now or hold onto it for a few years!
