Attractive deep ruby red hue. Marked underwood berry, tobacco and blackcurrant scents. Good flavour and mineral aromas. The tannins are reasonably sweet with a slightly vegetal aftertaste which is typical of the grape variety.

Wine Name: Tuaro Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso

Appellation: DOC Friuli Grave

Varietal Blend: 100% Refosco

Vineyards: Exclusively Pradio vineyards

Soil Type: Alluvial soil with 40% to 60% stone content

Vine Training Method: Guyot Vine Density: 5,000 vines per hectare

Yield: Approx. 10,000 kg of grapes per hectare

Harvest: Third and fourth weeks of September

Vinification Technique: The grapes are picked from the bunch and crushed then they undergo a cold pre-fermenting maceration for 48 hours. The temperature is raised and maintained at 25° for the entire fermentation period in order to obtain the best varietal characteristics and to contain the extraction of the tannins which are often a little hard and aggressive.

Aging: In steel then bottle-aged for a minimum of 2 months

Bottling: Estate bottled
