Stocco Sauvignon IGT, Stocco (2020) – Friuli Venezia Giulia

The Grape
Sauvignon Blanc. 

The Wine
The Stocco family has dedicated itself to the love and care of its land for more than 100 years, with four generations of wine producers and a history created by forward-thinking people. The Friuli Grave wine producing area is a large flood plain in the North-East of Italy.

Here, the gravelly, stony and chalky soil of the Grave boosts the fresh and mineral character of Stocco's wines youthful herbaceous nose, leads into a finely-textured gunflint palate with touches of yellow/tropical fruit and lime zest. The finish of this Sauvignon Blanc from Stocco is persistent and balanced.

The Food Pairing 
Sauvignon Blanc with its herbaceous notes pairs well with similar green herbs. If it has parsley, rosemary, basil, cilantro or mint, chances are Sauvignon Blanc will make a great pairing.
