    Somm Note

    Winemaker Notes

    Bright and brilliant straw yellow, with a bouquet of mild citrus notes of candied citron and pink grapefruit harmonizing with green notes reminiscent of box, pepper and sage and lesser calamint. The sip is full and satisfying.

    Excellent with dishes based on asparagus, with crustaceans and with fish haute cuisine in general

    Tenuta Ca' Bolani, Italy
    Tenuta Ca' Bolani Winery Image
    The Ca’ Bolani estate is at Cervignano del Friuli within the district of Aquileia, whose wines were already held in high esteem at the Imperial court during Roman times. Their characteristically intense personality stems from the area’s strong sunlight, from the proximity of the sea, from the zone’s soils and from its exclusive microclimate.

    There are ten varieties planted at Tenuta Ca' Bolani: seven white (Sauvignon, Traminer, Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio, Tocai Friulano, Müller Thurgau) and three black grapes (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso).

    Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.

    The source of some of Italy’s best and most distinctive white wines, Friuli-Venezia Giulia is where Italian, Germanic and Slavic cultures converge. The styles of wines produced in this region of Italy's far north-east reflect this merging of cultures. Often shortened to just “Friuli,” the area is divided into many distinct subzones, including Friuli Grave, Colli Orientali del Friuli, Collio Goriziano and Carso. The flat valley of Friuli Grave is responsible for a large proportion of the region’s wine production, particularly the approachable Pinot grigio and the popular Prosecco. The best vineyard locations are often on hillsides, as in Colli Orientali del Friuli or Collio. In general, Friuli boasts an ideal climate for viticulture, with warm sunny days and chilly nights, which allow grapes to ripen slowly and evenly.

    In Colli Orientali, the specialty is crisp, flavorful white wine made from indigenous varieities like Friulano (formerly known as Tocai Friulano), Ribolla gialla and Malvasia Istriana.

    Red wines, though far less common here, can be quite good, especially when made from the deeply colored, rustic Refosco variety. In Collio Goriziano, which abutts Slovenia, many of the same varieties are planted. International varieties like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc are also common, but they tend to be Loire-like in style with herbaceous character and mellow tannins. Carso’s star grape is the red Teranno, notable for being rich in iron content and historically consumed for health purposes. It has an earthy, meaty profile and is often confused with the distinct variety Refosco.
