Bianco “Latimis” is a wine made from a blend of different white grape varieties, the proportions of which can vary depending on the vintage to always maintain balance and stylistic coherence. Winemaking takes place in white with soft pressing of the whole grapes and fermentation at a controlled temperature around 19 °C with selected yeasts. Subsequently, the wine ages for about twelve months in large-capacity oak barrels, where it remains in contact with the fine lees, without carrying out malolactic fermentation. This technical choice contributes to obtaining a structured, intense and balanced wine, with good aromatic complexity.
Characteristics of this Friulian wine
It presents itself as a white wine with good structure and concentration, characterised by a balance between softness and freshness. On the nose it expresses a complex profile in which notes of ripe fruit, citrus and floral nuances intertwine, with calls that can recall peach, apricot and more honeyed and spicy accents. On the palate it is full and enveloping, with a rich and harmonious taste component, supported by good acidity that balances its structure and lengthens its persistence.
