Castelvecchio Carso Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso 2020
Originating from an ancient Friulian grape variety, Refosco di Castelvecchio has a deep ruby red colour, an ethereal, slightly vinous aroma with a bold character. The flavour is dry, full-bodied and vaguely bitterish. Roasts and game are particularly enhanced by this wine, which also goes well with other structured dishes of the Friulan cuisine.

Colour

Deep ruby red.

Bouquet

Complex with notes of berries, such as currants, and fruit in alcohol.

Flavour

Complex, with a delicate and persistent tannic structure. The flavour reflects the olfactory scents with notes of red fruits.

Pairing

It perfectly pairs with roasts and game. It also pairs with the savoury typical cuisine of Friuli Venezia-Giulia.
