I Clivi Collio Malvasia "Ottantanni" 2021

Collio - Friuli - Italy

ABV - 13%

The Malvasia Istriana grapes are hand harvested from 80 year old vines in Brazzano di Cormons, province of Gorizia, along the Slovenian border. The wine matures on the oaked lees for 12 months in stainless steel. After this time, the wine is bottled with a light filtration giving aromatic, gentle chamomile aromas. Acidic, yet delicate and floral with a great depth of fruit. The wine benefits from 30 minutes of air in the bottle prior to drinking and pairs great with spicy food and Asian dishes. Drink from now until at least 2027
