Among the selected wines:
Collio Pinot Grigio Mongris Riserva 2016 Marco Felluga – 92 points
“Bright straw-green. Very clean, serious aromas and flavors of nectarine, apple and pear have a nice mineral dusting and plenty of floral clarity and cut on the long juicy and vibrant close. Experience has shown, and this vintage it’s no different, that Marco Felluga’s Mongris is always a great Pinot Grigio.”
Collio Bianco Molamatta 2015 Marco Felluga – 93 points
“Bright straw yellow. Smoky buttery tones complicate aromas and flavors of mushrooms, stones, orchard fruit and herbs. Finishes long, nicely mellow and with very good size and focus. A knockout wine.”
Collio Friulano 2018 Russiz Superiore – 91 points
“Straw-green. Lemon, herbs, menthol, and a saline note on the nose and in the mouth. Shaped and intense, with outstanding precision and grip to the lemon, lime and minty flavors. The long, juicy and vibrant finish is not unlike that of a well-made gin and tonic.”
Collio Sauvignon Riserva 2013 Russiz Superiore – 92 points
“Bright straw yellow with golden tinges. Deep musky aromas of lemon drop, green fig, sage, oatmeal and white flowers. A big brooding white with excellent cut and herbal character to the round and evolving flavors of orange and gooseberry. Finishes long, precise and clean.”
