The wine
Description and technical sheet
Colterenzio's Sauvignon Lafóa: a name and a label present in the imagination of every young wine lover. It is one of the wines that since the 1980s have been produced with very high-quality standards from the large vineyard of the same name. It is a rather dry area with sandy and gravelly soils of morainic origin; exposure is optimal. After a short maceration, the perfectly ripe grapes are pressed. The must ferments half in steel, the rest in barriques. Only the latter part undergoes malolactic fermentation (a fermentation carried out by lactic bacteria which transforms malic acid into lactic acid, modifying the acid structure of the wine and making it softer). After about 8 months of maturation on the lees, the two wines are blended and bottled.
SAUVIGNON LAFOA COLTERENZIO: TASTING
Colterenzio's Sauvignon Lafóa 2018 comes in an intense straw yellow in the glass; on the nose, it is very rich in flowers and herbs: from the territorial elderflower to acacia, to sage. In the mouth, it is very fresh, wide, and long. To be tasted now and uncorked again in 5-6 years. Good with Ligurian-style anchovies al verde, or with Cacciucco alla Livorno, or with rabbit stewed with olives.
