Reviews

Luca Maroni 91

Characterized by a fabulous softness and dense liveliness on the palate, the taste of this sparkling wine stands out with every sip. Clear fragrances, dense perlage, and a creamy extractive texture. A fruit characterized by a very pleasant taste.

James Suckling 91

This is fresh and vivid with notes of lemon-drops, sliced pears, guava, elderflower and crushed stones. Medium-bodied with chalky texture and some saline character. Fine mousse with a mineral finish.

Wine Enthusiast 90

Lemon, green apple, fresh white flowers and a touch of thyme flow from the glass on this Colfondo Glera. Notes of apple cider, sour green apples and crushed rocks show themselves on the palate with a hint of chamomile on the bright finish.

Technical Details

Description

Produced by sustainable, innovative and quality-oriented grape-growers and winemakers. Blancjat is produced as a natural wine in a manor founded more than 400 years ago. They use renewable energies and green technologies to respect and protect the soil and vines. From the vineyards to the bottle, they aim to offer wines that give emotions to everybody. A land between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, these estate-owned vineyards cover more than 325 acres in DOC Friuli Grave with an emphasis on natural and organic practices. The grapes for Blancjat are harvested by hand, the first fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats. The natural second fermentation in bottle takes place according to the "ancestral method" and is bottles unfiltered with zero residual sugar.

Tasting notes

Produced from the Glera grape in Northeastern Italy, Blancjat is a natural sparkling wine with apple and pear notes and a light hint of acacia flowers. The same notes dominate the palate with excellent acidity and balance. Perfect with a wide variety of lighter dishes because of its fine bubbles and complexity. Excellent with fish and white meat dishes but can also be enjoyed with pizza and appetizers.
