Miani, Sauvignon, 2024
This is the Miani Sauvignon with no vineyard name on the label, which at this address still means hand-worked ponca hillsides in Friuli's Colli Orientali and yields cut to almost nothing. Enzo Pontoni does not appear to own a setting other than maximum. Expect Sauvignon in the Miani register: ripe rather than green, savory rather than grassy, with yellow stone fruit, herbs, a chalky mineral streak and a finish that hangs around far longer than the category usually allows. Barrel raising here builds texture, not oak flavor. The 2024 is a baby, so give it a large glass, only a light chill, and plenty of air. Quantities are tiny, as they always are here.
