Aromas unfold with sweet, spicy fruit, marked mineral tones and layers of pineapple, candied citrus, iris, hyacinth, aromatic herbs and walnut shell, all wrapped in a subtle, well-integrated woody note.\n\nOn the palate, it is dry, textural and complex, with the freshness and precision of Friuli white wine balanced by a fuller, more rounded mouthfeel from élevage in small French oak barrels. The finish is long and nuanced, with savory mineral tension and a graceful depth that suggests excellent ageing potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIllivio is produced in Colli Orientali del Friuli, where the vineyards benefit from a terroir well suited to aromatic, structured white wines. The grapes are carefully destemmed and briefly macerated before gentle pressing, followed by clarification through decanting. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures in small French oak barrels, and the wine then matures on its lees in those same barrels for around ten months, adding texture, complexity and subtle oak influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a versatile wine for refined dishes such as seafood risotto, butter-poached shellfish, roast chicken, veal, truffle pasta or creamy mushroom preparations. Serve it at around 10–12°C to highlight both its freshness and aromatic depth. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration in the glass can help open the wine’s more layered notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLivio Felluga is one of the defining names of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, with a legacy that began in 1956 and helped establish the region’s reputation for high-quality wines.
