Produced and bottled by Bastianich S.r.l. – Cividale del Friuli (UD), Italy
Produced in Italy
Plus is its name. Venezia Giulia IGT is the denomination. Bastianich is the producer. About this wine we read: "it is a pure Friulano, deep and complex, more unique than rare, dedicated to all those who want to treat themselves to an experience that is different from the norm". Plus is a white wine that does not fear the passage of time. A wine that is already good today, of course, but above all a bottle to be forgotten in the cellar. For years, in fact, it will be able to evolve and give us ever-changing satisfaction. It is made from grapes harvested in the company's vineyards in Buttrio and Premariacco, in the province of Udine. Wonderful plants with an average age of about 70 years. Part of the grapes, carefully selected, are dried after harvesting. Then we proceed with the fermentation, in steel, and with the malolactic fermentation which is carried out on about 60% of the total mass of the wine. This is followed by a period of maturation in steel for 16 months, at least 8 of which are spent in contact with its own yeasts. Golden yellow with green reflections, the nose reveals a ripe and powerful white, with scents of mandarin, orange, melon and pear. In the mouth it is rich and dense, with a very long aftertaste of fruit, silky and ripe. It accompanies important dishes such as foie gras. But it does not disdain a more traditional pairing with shellfish, soft cheeses or spicy Asian dishes.
The Bastianich family, that of the legendary Joe, has a history deeply linked to wine and to Friuli in particular. In fact, since 1997 the Bastianich Estate has been able to count on no less than 40 hectares of vineyards, located in two distinct areas of the DOC Colli Orientali del Friuli. Part of them are on the Buttrio and Premariacco hills, in the hottest and southernmost area of the denomination. Here ripening is influenced by the warmth coming from the sea and the grapes are perfect for the production of the most full-bodied and structured wines. The other part of the estate is located in the hills of Cividale del Friuli and enjoys a completely different climate. Often affected by the Bora, the cold wind from the north, it produces wines with greater aromatic intensity. In the Bastianich wine range there are extremely territorial whites and reds, with some peaks of absolute excellence.
