The 2010 Sauvignon opens with a distinctly green, grassy bouquet. Although there is good body and depth in the fruit, the size of the mid-palate and finish seems totally out of sync with the aromatics. Hard, angular contours remain on the finish. Overall, this is another wine where the sense of balance is missing. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2014. Villa Russiz appears to be in transition at the moment, after the departure of longtime winemaker Gianni Menotti over the summer. Hopefully things will settle down. The estate is run by a non-profit organization, and my feeling has long been that the potential of these vineyards in the heart of the Collio has yet to fully be realized.Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel.
