Description
The 2022 Vie di Romans Friuli Isonzo Sauvignon Blanc "Vieris" is a refined white wine from the Friuli Isonzo DOC region in Italy, produced by the renowned winery Vie di Romans. This wine is made exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc grapes, mainly French clones, grown in the "Vieris" vineyard. The "Vieris" vineyard is located in the Friuli Isonzo Rive Alte area, known for its unique terroir that contributes to the complexity of the wine. After harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation at temperatures between 16-19°C for approximately 14-18 days. The wine is then aged 'sur lie' (on the lees) in barriques for 10 months, followed by 8 months of bottle aging.
The 2022 "Vieris" Sauvignon Blanc reveals delicate aromas of white flowers and broken slate, evolving into notes of ginger-infused pear and green melon. On the palate, the wine offers a refreshing and round texture, with ripe stone fruit and crisp mineral notes that provide a lovely finish. This wine pairs well with seafood, light pastas and grilled vegetables. Serve at a temperature of around 11 ° C to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity.

This is a beautifully expressive wine that benefits from lees aging in oak barrel. The Vie di Romans 2021 Friuli Isonzo Sauvignon Blanc Vieris (with 35,200 bottles released) has floral tones, plumeria, a touch of white pepper and ashy mineral notes. The Vieris shows less of the jalapeño that I got in the zesty Piere rendition of this same grape. This wine also offers some elegant petroleum-like hints that add to the overall complexity.
Vie di Romans completed construction on its new winery in 2023. The structure has three floors with a larger barrel room and a visitors center. Starting at the beginning of 2024, proprietor Gianfranco Gallo brought his wife and children into the winery management loop.

This has more of a peachy color with ripe stone fruit, sliced apples, savory herbs, spices, praline and crushed stones. Medium- to full-bodied, chalky and slightly phenolic with some salty character to it. Creamy finish. Drink now.

From: Friuli-Venezia Giulia: Both Sides of the Spectrum (Apr 2024)
Perfumed and delicate upon first pour, the 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Vieris slowly evolves, wafting up with dusty white flowers and cracked slate, evolving into ginger-infused pear and green melon. This is cool-toned with soothingly round textures, yet energetic as well, showcasing ripe pit fruits and crunchy mineral tones that add tactile satisfaction toward the close. The 2022 tapers off with a floral resonance and long, becoming classically dry and slightly austere, demanding patience while still leaving the palate completely refreshed. Despite the warm vintage, this is a Vieris that will excel in the cellar.
- By Eric Guido on August 2024
Utterly enticing from the first tilt of the glass and impossible to ignore, the 2022s from Vie di Romans display a combination of richness, depth of fruit and a core of zesty acidity that I find wildly attractive. These wines hail from an extremely warm and dry year with a healthy fruit set that resulted in larger clusters yet smaller berries. Limited use of drip irrigation was necessary to offset the drought conditions, yet was described by Matteo Gallo as “micro-irrigation”, giving only a tiny amount of water to vines to maintain their health. Cooling rain in late August into September brought balance to the equation, and while the Gallos harvested about ten days earlier than average, it still wasn’t as early as they originally feared it would be. Gallo explained that 2022 was one of their “Mediterranean-style vintages,” making comparisons to 2008 and 2018. I will say that the 2022s are ripe in style, with alcohol percentages in the 14 - 14.5% range, yet the harmony found within them is spellbinding. In fact, if I didn’t have the chance to taste these next to another vintage, their warm character wouldn’t have stood out at all. In the end, this is a fantastic set of wines that shouldn’t be missed by fans of Vie di Romans or Friuli itself. I also expect several of them to age remarkably well.

The house Vie di Romans is located in the Isonzo - the lower part of Friuli - between the Adriatic Sea and Collio. Because the country warms up during the day and cools down again at night, it often blows here. These conditions are ideal for wine growing. The wind quickly blows the grapes dry when wet, so they hardly need to be treated with pesticides.
Vie di Romans' Gianfranco Gallo was one of the first winemakers to see potential in the alluvial plain of Friuli. Thirty years ago he took over the domain from his father and in 1978 he released his first wine. Since 1990, almost all of his wines are monocépages (made from one and the same grape) from different vineyards. Gianfranco has its own style of wine making. He is particularly closely involved in every part of the process: from working in the vineyard to the cellar. He keeps the yields per hectare as low as possible and supervises the very strict use of pesticides - preferably none. The result is large, concentrated and complex wines that last a lifetime.
