Note di degustazione
The 2016 Sauvignon (Dark Label) seduces with a delicate mix of wet slate, ripe pears and zests of lime. It flows effortlessly across the plate, guided by cool-toned acidity that ushers in hints of tropical melon contrasted by lime zest. There’s still a mineral tension here as this leaves the mouth watering. The 2016 is so gorgeous today and perfectly balanced.

The 2016 Collio Sauvignon Selezione (in the dark green able) is a beautifully expressive and delicately fragrant white wine. Instead of those pungent New World aromas of passion fruit and tomato leaf, this wine shows much softer, low key aromas that prize elegance and finesse. The clone used here is a phenotype that shows specific characteristics of the Friuli area, and the roots of this grape are traced to the first half of the 1800s, meaning that it somehow survived the devastating Phylloxera outbreak. This wine presents beautiful nuances of white peach and honeydew melon backed by distinctively salty or mineral notes. I love the liveliness, the energy and the elegance of this stunning wine. Some 2,000 bottles were made.

Borgo del Tiglio is one of Italy's great hidden gems. A devastating landslide in November 2025 destroyed the estate's cellars, leaving the future of the historic Ronco della Chiesa vineyard uncertain.
