Description
A white wine that reflects its terroir: a clean wine that encapsulates the aromas and scents of a new and, until now, unexplored terroir. A part of the collection of high altitude wines by Roberto Baldovin. At over 800 meters above sea level, Roberto has done what nobody has done before–producing wine in the Friulian Dolomites.
From the term ‘vico,’ whose root is connected with that of the Greek word for “house.” Vicus is first and foremost a hamlet, a village that is distinguished from the civitas not so much by its size or importance, but because it does not have an autonomous political-administrative organization; secondly, it is the complex of several houses and streets in a city, what today we would call a neighborhood.

Tasting notes: A radiant soul reveals itself at first glance in its golden yellow robe, enriched with amber reflections that evoke the warmth of the sun and the ripeness of the fruit.
A fresh and intense bouquet of Golden Delicious apples, cinnamon, acacia flowers, custard, and notes of bergamot blend harmoniously with hints of white peach. An irresistible symphony of flavors captivates the palate. The initial freshness combines with a vibrant mineral flavor. The full and enveloping body caresses the palate with notes of almond, peach, and custard. The perfectly balanced alcohol blends with subtle spices, lending a lingering and distinctive finish. A white wine that reflects its terroir: a clean wine that encapsulates the aromas and scents of a new and, until now, unexplored terroir.
Serving suggestions: Ideal with pâtés and foie gras, fresh and mature cheeses. It elegantly pairs with fish and white meat dishes and enhances game.
