Appearance: Intense straw yellow with a bright sheen in the glass

Nose: Floral-driven with delicate white blossoms (think acacia or wisteria) layered over ripe stone fruits. There’s an underlying purity and restrained intensity

Palate: Rounded and plush on entry, this is a full-bodied white with impressive length. The fruit is ripe but balanced by a saline minerality typical of Friuli terroir. The wine offers persistence without excessive weight or sweetness

Finish & Texture: Smooth and velvety, with natural grip and longevitydry, elegant, and persistently flavoured.

The 2023 Buri Bellaria Friulano is a wine that expertly marries power with finesse. It delivers luxurious fruit tone and intricate texture, tempered by vibrant acidity and salty finesse. Serving at 1214C, it’s approachable now but will reward patience over the next 510 yearsor even beyond soaking up more complexity.
