Livio Felluga Sosso Rosso Riserva 2018
Born in 1989, it takes its name from the small stream "Sosso" located at the foot of the hill where the grapes grow. A careful selection of Merlot and Refosco - with a small percentage of Pignolo - produced from the oldest vines of Rosazzo, is the result of a meticulous vinification and ageing in small barrels that lasts for 18 months. A wine of great complexity and structure, it is distinguished by elegant tannins, ripe, fruity and sweet.

Colour

Deep ruby red, almost impenetrable.

Bouquet

Extremely complex bouquet that gradually reveals itself over the course of the tasting, revealing notes of calla lily flowers, cedar wood, redcurrants, toasted almonds, Prunus flowers, rosemary, undergrowth, pastry, pomegranate.

Flavour

Elegant and pleasant expression and balanced tannins; at the same time presents itself fruity and mineral; aftertaste features notes of red fruits, vanilla bean, juniper berries.
