What a difference place makes! With Cicinis, Frescobaldi uses Sauvignon Blanc planted in Collio, which elevates it to a DOC wine instead of an IGT designated one. In contrast to their IGT Sauvignon Blanc that focuses on the varietal—fruity—aspect of the grape, Cicinis spotlights its mineral notes and mouthfeel. In addition to its beautiful texture, the mid-weight Cicinis weaves delicate citrusy notes into its complex fabric. Long and satisfying, this balanced beauty is worth lingering over during dinner this summer.
