Torre Rosazza Pignolo 2018
The Pignolo is a grape variety originating in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, with an ancient tradition documented as far back as 1300. It was abandoned in favour of less inconstant international vines. From a few vines recovered from the vineyards of the Abbey of Rosazzo, the Colli Orientali del Friuli area has been repopulated with this noble vine, capable of yielding wines of great character and typicality.

Colour

Bouquet

Complex scent with notes of spices and morello cherry.

Flavour

A superior taste with balsamic and spicy notes with a great but soft tannicity, and persistence.

Pairing

Soil composition This wine originates from a soil named "Ponca", which is a sedimentary formation integrally made of clayey marl alternating with layers of sandstone. This soil shows low fertility and good capacity to hold water giving the wine a full-bodied taste and colour, tannins, and minerality. Vineyards are located in the top of the hills with a perfect exposure that allows the full ripening of the grapes. The remarkable temperatures and the good ventilation from the Adriatic Sea give tasty and sugary grapes.
