Piana Dei Castelli
Follia Sauvignon
Lazio, Italy
Not anymore a straight Sauvignon i got told
It has grechetto, riesling and perhaps trebbiano and malvasia too
It doesn't lose its marvellous mineral character
It resembles a Sancerre made with very ripe grapes, in fact there is a tendency with Matteo Ceracchi to harvest the Sauvignon at least, as far as I know, 10 to 15 days later than usual
Complexity benefits from this and still the wine doesn't lack freshness
It's long and promising
I am very happy i found a Matteo's wine so well made again after such a long time i hadn't tried it
Try it yourself if you can
Ps. I love the statement on the back label
OGNI BOTTIGLIA PUÓ ESSERE DIVERSA which translates to "Each individual bottle might be different"❤

Great expression of Sauvignon from an area where no other people have ever thought to grow it
Result is so minerally that sometime reminds me of a Sancerre 🙏✌️
