Marco Felluga Friuli Sauvignon Sandis 75cl

Crisp, aromatic, and built for people who like their white wine to taste alive, Marco Felluga’s Sauvignon from Friuli brings citrus, herbs, and a cool, mineral edge that keeps you coming back for another sip.

• Appearance: Pale straw with greenish highlights, bright and clear in the glass.
• Nose: Zesty grapefruit, lime peel, and gooseberry, plus fresh-cut grass, sage, and a little whiff of elderflower.
• Taste: Citrus-forward and dry, with tangy acidity that snaps everything into focus. You get juicy lemon and green fruit up front, then a savoury herbal streak and a lightly salty, stony note.
• Body: Light-to-medium bodied, more “crisp and energetic” than “round and heavy.”
• Finish: Clean, long, and mouth-watering, with citrus pith and herbs lingering in a good way.

What makes it special is that Friuli Sauvignon tends to lean less tropical and more precise, so you get brightness and detail instead of a one-note fruit bomb. This is the bottle you grab when you want a white that feels sharp, fresh, and layered, the kind that can handle everything from citrusy salads to grilled seafood without getting lost.

Marco Felluga is a name you’ll see again and again in Friuli because they’ve been doing the region proud for generations, and it shows in how put-together this wine feels. It’s expressive on the nose, clean on the palate, and it doesn’t fade halfway through the glass.

If your usual Sauvignon Blanc is all about punchy fruit, this one adds a little more structure and that subtle mineral bite that keeps it interesting. It’s also a great “convert a Chardonnay drinker” white, because it brings flavour and definition without going heavy.

You’ll notice the balance, citrus, herbs, and that steady acidity working together. It’s the opposite of flabby. It’s the kind of wine that makes food taste better, then tastes even better after the food.

Fun Fact: The Felluga family’s winemaking roots in Friuli trace back to the late 1800s, and their name is closely tied to the modern rise of Friuli as Italy’s benchmark region for crisp, aromatic whites.
