Obtained exclusively from Sauvignon, a French vine cultivated in the region of Sauternes in Bordeaux, introduced into Gorizia in the mid-1800s, where it “achieved superior results to all the other white grapes that had already arrived” said Giovanni Bolle in 1891, “in the most fertile soils, deep with some clay of the hills, Sauvignon had revealed robust vegetation and a constant and regular production.”

A local farm brought it to the fair at Trieste in 1888. Isidoro and Robert Princic acquired Sauvignon in 1978 and have kept the same typology; their most recent plantings date back to 1985. “Characteristic of our Sauvignon are the perfumes, not overly intense, but on the contrary, fine and elegant” that we tend to emphasize.
