2022 Borgo del Tiglio - Milleuve Bianco Venezia Giulia Bianco (750ml)

Delivering focused structure and crisp acidity straight from Friuli’s steep Collio slopes, this 2022 Milleuve Bianco combines five native and international varietals into a consistently drinkable yet complex white wine. Produced by Nicola and Mattia Manferrari just outside Cormons, the blend relies on hand-selected fruit from low-yielding family vineyards in Brazzano and Ruttars. Rather than focusing on a single grape, the winemakers prioritize site expression, blending Friulano, Malvasia, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, and Riesling Renano to maximize aromatic layering and textural depth. The Manferrari family applies rigorous cellaring protocols typically reserved for premium designations. Grapes undergo gentle pneumatic pressing to preserve delicate primary aromatics, followed by gravity-fed transfers between tanks and months of patient barrel aging. Though positioned as the estate's more accessible pour, the 2022 harvest captures the vintage’s hallmark energy through clean citrus flavors, a solid mid-palate of yellow stone fruit, and a sharp saline finish. This wine performs best when served chilled alongside dishes that benefit from high acid and subtle phenolic texture. Pour it over oysters, clams, or crudo-style fish preparations. The mineral backbone also supports richer plates like brown butter pasta, roasted poultry, charcuterie boards, and aged Pecorino or Parmigiano Reggiano without losing its freshness.
