Vivid, expressive, and shaped by the winds of Friuli.
Forchir’s Sauvignon Blanc captures the soul of Friuli Venezia Giulia — a land where mountain air meets sea breeze, and the vineyards breathe freshness and light. Here, on the gravelly plains of Camino al Tagliamento, Sauvignon Blanc finds its perfect balance: intensely aromatic yet refined, vibrant yet poised. It’s a wine that speaks fluently of place — of limestone soils, cool nights, and the purity that defines this northeastern Italian region.
Forchir’s approach is one of precision and restraint. The grapes are harvested early to preserve their natural acidity, then gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel to highlight their pure, varietal character. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc that stands apart — elegant rather than grassy, layered rather than sharp, carrying a seamless balance between fruit, minerality, and freshness.
In the glass, it glows pale gold, offering aromas of citrus zest, elderflower, and fresh-cut herbs. On the palate, it’s crisp and mouthwatering, yet with a silky texture that makes every sip glide. For wine lovers in Ireland, this is the kind of white that feels tailor-made for our seafood, green pastures, and cool coastal evenings — a taste of Friuli’s vitality with unmistakable Italian finesse.
Why we love it:
We love Forchir’s Sauvignon Blanc for its refinement and clarity. It delivers all the aromatic vibrancy you expect — citrus, herbs, white flowers — but without any harshness or excess. This is Sauvignon Blanc done the Friulian way: elegant, mineral-driven, and quietly confident. A wine that feels as refreshing as a sea breeze and as precise as a craftsman’s touch.
