Refosco Dal Peduncolo Rosso is an ancient Friulian vine whose origins date back to the Roman Empire over 2000 years ago and which has been cultivated in our territory since then. Wine characterised by warm and intense aromas. Immediate flavours of cherry and blackberry jam, and spice with mineral notes such as graphite; when young, it is full and intense; when aged, it is enriched with elegant sensations that recall liquorice and spices. In the mouth, it is extremely voluminous, warm and well balanced; the mineral complexity is enriched by the sweet tannin, which enhances its verticality. At the rear of the mouth, the sensation is full and fragrant. It is potent, rich, modern, and at the same time austere; powerful structure and character of great elegance.
The 2000 vintage was a rather hot year, but cool and dry harvest period. Very complex and long lived wine.
