Villa Russiz Gräfin de la Tour 2018
£43.85
Collio Chardonnay Grafin de la Tour Villa Russiz is a grand cru of Villa Russiz winery. This dry white wine is golden yellow with slight yellow tints at the edges and ripe apple, vanilla and citrus aromas very well integrated on the nose. Balanced, complex and powerful on the palate, Grafin de la Tour is excellent as an aperitif with quality medium-aged cheeses and fragrant cured meats, perfect to accompany structured first courses, hearty soups such as seafood chowder, refined cuts of white meat, possibly grilled, and fish.

Friuli-Venezia Giulia – Villa Russiz
Villa Russiz was founded on 15 February 1868 with the marriage of Elvine Ritter von Zahony to Theodor de La Tour. Elvine’s dowry, Villa Russiz, turns out to be an area which is still particularly conducive to the cultivation of vines and for producing wines of an exceptional quality.
The wines are part of the Collio controlled nomination of origin: an elegant Sauvignon de La Tour; a Gräfin de La Tour, a refined chardonnay; a Graf de La Tour, a velvety merlot and the Défi de La Tour Cabernet Sauvignon. Les Enfants, the only non-doc exception is a blend of grapes with a name that recalls the estate’s historical commitment within the social sector. In terms of taste, Les Enfants evokes the most characteristic nuances of the Collio territory thanks to its Pinot Banco and Pinot Grigio grapes, and a small percentages of Ribolla and Sauvignon are added to complete its harmony and freshness.
