Schiopetto FRIULANO 2020 Collio DOC

FRIULANO Collio DOC

A traditional characteristic wine with a strong personality, obtained purely from Tocai Friulano grapes, historic varietal from Collio of Gorizia, planted in a well ventilated hill area where the soil is mainly clay and limestone (called “marna”) with origins from the eocenic era.

The grapes are all picked by hand, pressed in a soft press after which there follows a brief period of decantation in total absence of sulphur dioxide.

This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks under a controlled temperature.

The ageing takes place on the lees for 8 months.

Colour: bright straw yellow, with gold-greenish reflexes

Aroma: outstanding nose, with intense aromas of pear and apricot, barely perceivable the classic almond; further aromas of wildflowers help to give more complexity.

Palate: the palate is full-bodied, dynamic with an aristocratic balance deriving from an excellent fusion between of its freshness and marine notes, together with its match of aromas to the nose and mouth.
