Winery - Bortoluzzi
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An open-knit, friendly nose features lots of nectarine and ripe apple scents. Medium-weight, with plenty of stone fruit on the palate, it finishes with a cleansing burst of peppery spice. Try as an apéritif.

Peach, apricot, honey and white almond color an intense and personality-driven Chardonnay from northeast Italy. The wine’s strongest suit, however, is its texture, which is supple, smooth and long lasting on the palate.

Bortoluzzi’s Friulano is fresh and immediate with a nice level of aromatic intensity. The wine delivers peach blossom and vanilla bean over a creamy and rich consistency. It lasts long on the palate with spicy crispness on the close.

This Sauvignon opens with a lively color and offers broad aromas of exotic fruit and white flower. It’s not as intensely aromatic as you would expect but it does deliver satisfying sensations of crispness and freshness to the mouth. Pair it with spicy Thai or Indian dishes.

Here’s a cheerful Chardonnay with grassy and herbal notes backed by sunny exotic fruit, papaya and mango. The wine sports a bright luminous color and offers crisp acidity backed by the variety’s natural structure and creamy texture.

Bortoluzzi’s Friulano is redolent of pear, Golden Delicious apple and melon. The wine delivers a beautifully luminous golden color and by its appearance you can see the rich concentration. The creamy, dense mouthfeel would pair with Béchamel-based dishes.

You’ll admire the focus and sharpness of this Pinot Grigio and its aromas of peach and passionfruit with a sour grapefruit twist. The wine is smooth and firm in the mouth and ends on a lively, spicy note.

Here’s a Pinot Grigio with fruit selected from five different vineyards in Friuli’s Gradisca d’Isonzo area. Three of the sites render fruit used as the wine’s backbone and the remaining sites render fruit with more delicate aromas of dried hay, vanilla bean and dried lemon rind. Imported by Empson (USA) Ltd.

The peach flavors are pleasant enough, but even a slight spritz can’t save this wine from seeming heavy and clumsy.
