Saurint is one of the named Sauvignon vineyards that Enzo Pontoni treats like a grand cru, and he farms it more or less alone. The parcel sits on the same ponca marl that gives Miani's whites their spine, and it is cropped at yields most growers would file under financial malpractice. The wine trades green snap for depth: ripe yellow fruit, white flowers, a smoky mineral undertow, and real weight through the middle that somehow never costs it tension. Fermented and raised in barrel, though what you notice is texture rather than wood. Serve it in a big glass, only lightly chilled, and give it air. This is a young wine with a very long road in front of it. These bottles reached us from a private cellar.

More about Miani

Enzo Pontoni released his first bottles in 1985, and Miani has been one of Friuli's great cult names ever since. A soft-spoken farmer who works the vines himself in Buttrio and Rosazzo, he crops at tiny yields, around 10 hectoliters per hectare, on ponca, the region's layered marl and sandstone. The Friulanos Buri and Filip, the Sauvignons Saurint and Zitelle and the Ribolla Pettarin are rare, expensive and very hard to find. This is what happens when a grower refuses to compromise.
