Territory and wine style

The DOC Collio is one of the most recognizable areas of Friuli Venezia Giulia for the production of quality wines, appreciated for the balance between aromatic finesse, tasting tension, and the ability to produce solid and long-lived wines. In this context, Villa Russiz's Cabernet Sauvignon interprets the grape variety in a territorial key, with a well-defined structure and a mark that highlights both the energy of the fruit and the spicy component typical of the variety. Manual harvesting and maturation in small French oak barrels help to outline a refined, orderly style suitable for bottle aging.

On the palate, it shows good acidity, present tannins, and a balanced structure, with a tasting progression that leaves space for sensations of depth and substance. The sip is enveloping yet measured, with a persistent finish that is consistent with the grape variety's vocation. With evolution, the wine gains further harmony and a more composed texture, becoming more intense and of great character.

Recommended pairings
