Friuli Colli Orientali DOC
Pinot Bianco
Refined, bright and elegant, La Montuzza Pinot Bianco is made from 100% Pinot Bianco grapes grown on marl and clay soils.
Pale straw yellow in the glass, it has a delicate, velvety profile. The aromas evoke white flowers and fresh apple, with notes of apricot and banana and a subtle mineral edge.
The grapes are vinified as a white wine, with fermentation split between stainless steel and wood. The wine spends five months ageing in both before resting in bottle. The result is a harmonious, precise wine with a smooth, consistent palate.
Versatile at the table, it pairs well with raw seafood and fish dishes, risotto, soups, white meats, light dishes and fresh cheeses. It also makes a good aperitif. Best served at 12°C.

Uvaggio Rosso
Pignolo, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Schioppettino.
