Cucumber, green apple, and underripe honeydew. Beautiful lemon-lime and saline mineral vein throughout.

Label looks old school, but from what I know they're actually new-school old school. Slow foods style Italian winemaking. Uncompromising restraint and mineral focus.

Citrus and lychee on the nose. Bright acidity and crisp finish. Perfect for buttery white fish.

2012 has been hit or miss for me in Friuli, too much alcohol and fruit flesh. In characteristic fashion though, I Clivi has still managed to make a restrained, tense mineral white.

Bone dry and salty - like sea spray on a saltine

Subtle aromas of green apple, pear, and lemon with a hint of salinity. Lemon and apple flavors with light oak in the background. Plenty of acid leaves mouth watering after the light but lingering finish. Wonderfully refreshing. Could be great during summer gatherings alongside seafood and bright salads. Find it!
