A fine example of Friuli Venezia Giulia winemaking, this Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC reflects generations of local expertise. At 15% alcohol, it delivers real concentration and power on the palate. Crafted from Cabernet Franc 50%, Merlot 50%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards in Cividale del Friuli, on South-East facing vineyards, located at an altitude of 150 m. above sea level and with a clay soil. Vinification: fermentation in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged 12 months in French barriques, 36 in Slavonian oak barrels, other 12 in wooden barrels and at least 12 in bottle. A wine capturing the crisp, mineral-driven style of Friuli whites.
Friuli Venezia Giulia is celebrated as one of Italy's premier white wine regions.
