FRIULANO DOC COLLIO
This variety is the everyday and every occasion wine in Friuli Venezia Giulia, perfect as aperitif for the lower acidity and soft taste.
Grape Variety: 100% Friulano
Vineyards: Cime, Bernizza, Cero', Sant'Elena
Alcohol: 13% - Total Acidity: 4,8 g/l - Serving Temperature: 10° - 12° C (50° F)
Vinification:
grapes from younger vines are slowly de-stemmed and cold macerated for 6-8 hours at 46°-50°F (8°-10°C). The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. "Batonage" once a week for two months improves the body.
Tasting notes:
typical aromas reminiscent of fresh almonds, walnuts, candy and clovers. The taste has a velvet soft texture due to its inherent low acidity with flavors that reminds quince, curry and bitter almonds. Less intense then Ronco delle Cime but the fruit opens up earlier.
Match typical "Furlan" dishes:
perfect as aperitif asparagus soup, prosciutto crudo and risotto with mushrooms (the most easy to find is usually the porcini one).
