Vignis di Siris
Grape variety: Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon
Production area: DOC Isonzo del Friuli - Cormòns
Soil: gravelly and calcareous
Mauro likes to say that Vignis di Siris is symbolic of his cellar, his philosophy of life and his approach to winemaking, which brings past and future together in harmony. “Vignis” is the Friulian for “Vineyard” and “Siris” is the local name for the countryside that surrounds the south-west part of Cormòns, where Mauro’s winery is located. Vignis di Siris is obtained from a blend of the Drius family’s three favourite varieties sourced exclusively from this outstanding vineyard: steel-matured Friulano with cask-conditioned Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon.
The resulting wine flaunts an impeccable equilibrium of ripeness, freshness, exuberance and subtle expressivity. Vignis di Siris presents a brilliant hue sporting yellow-gold highlights. Spicy notes are deliciously offset by an intriguingly nuanced bouquet.
Savoury minerality on the palate reflects the territory.
A fine accompaniment for pasta and rice served with hearty, elaborate sauces. Particularly suitable for white and red meats or platters of fresh and mature cheeses.
Sensar
Grape variety: Friulano
Production area: DOC Isonzo del Friuli - Cormòns
Soil: gravelly and calcareous
Sensar is born out of the art, passion and teaching of grandfather Sergio. It is a wine that reflects the soul of a land that has always expressed a great vocation for viticulture.
“Sensar”, in the Friulian language, was the mediator in agriculture, and this is how Sergio was known. When Sergio walked among the rows of old vineyards, those who had listened to the tale of the land and its silence, he pointed the way to what would later become the selection for this profound wine.
Sensar is obtained from the selection of the best Friulano grapes harvested in the oldest vineyards, which are macerated for a few hours. The resulting wine is aged in steel tanks.
The result is a full-bodied, perfectly balanced wine with a deep soul and direct expressiveness, without frills, in full respect of the Friulian soul.
Sensar presents a brilliant hue with yellow-gold highlights. The nose join fruity and floral notes, while in the mouth it is a fresh, full bodied and long wine.
