Description
A still red from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, produced by Bastianich, a winery rooted in a passion for wine and a rediscovery of its origins. 0.75 L bottle, 2019 vintage. A wine born from the fusion of Friulian tradition and the experience of the Bastianich family, with Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, Merlot, Pignolo, and Schioppettino grapes. The grapes not destined for drying are instead selected on sorting tables, destemmed, crushed, and sent to alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature between 25 and 27°C. On the nose, it is rich with notes of chocolate, coffee, spices, and ripe red fruit, a bouquet that invites tasting. A dense ruby red color. On the palate, it presents remarkable structure and grip, while maintaining its elegance, a wine that promises great emotions.
