Eugenio Collavini
Collio Bianco Broy
This is Collavini's flagship wine. Golden yellow, on the nose it is characterized by intense and penetrating notes, where notes of lavender, tropical fruit and acacia honey are recognized, accompanied by iodine and mineral hints. In the mouth it is elegant, with an evident savory and acidic note, which helps to give freshness. Perfectly balanced and deserving of the 3 glasses from Gambero Rosso

TECHNICAL NOTES

Vinification
The Friulano and Chardonnay grapes are part-raisined in a ventilated drying room with almost zero humidity at a temperature of 6-8 °C while the Sauvignon is pressed separately after brief skin contact and chilled to block fermentation. When the grapes are sufficiently concentrated, the musts are blended and fermented in steel
Ageing
Maturation on the fine lees continues until the summer and the wine goes into bottle before the next harvest.
