Fondo Indizeno Sauvignon Blanc

Fondo Indizeno is a new project from renowned winemaker Christian Patat, one of Friuli’s most faithful advocates and a man who has done so much to promote this area.

Its vineyards are spread over three villages in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, which were chosen due to their excellent quality terroir; Buttrio, Prepotto and Premariacco.

They work with 15 hectares of very old vines, between 30-40 years, planted on marl based soils (locally known as “Ponca”). The vines benefit from a Mediterranean climate, with continental influences, hot summers, cold winters and dry autumns.

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are hand-harvested at the end of September. Vinified entirely in stainless steel tanks, the wine is bottled with a light filtration.

It is a fresh, crisp Sauvignon with citrus fruit, gooseberry and subtle herbal notes.  There is a lovely flinty character and great balance, with superb texture and depth.
