Vini Orsone Schioppetino 2022

Description

A still red from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, 12.5% ABV, produced by Bastianich. 100% Schioppettino, 2022 vintage. A wine that embodies the Bastianich family's passion for wine, born in the 1970s and 1980s with the promotion of the finest Friulian wines. On the nose, what we might consider its signature—spicy notes (black pepper throughout)—emerge with clarity and incredible olfactory definition, accompanied by sweet, subtle, and delicate fruit that makes it elegant from the first sip. A slightly pale ruby red color with delicate purple highlights. On the palate, the silky sensation evokes a balance and elegance of the highest caliber, with tannins and acidity that are clearly present yet extremely measured.

The deep connection the Bastianich family has with the wine world takes us back decades and generations. In fact, it dates back to the encounters with the most important winemaking families in the 1970s and 1980s and the promotion of the best Friulian wines on the menus of the Family's various restaurants in the United States. It was this passion for wine, combined with the desire to rediscover and rediscover their origins, that led the Bastianich family, in 1997, to plant the first vineyards in Cividale del Friuli, in one of Italy's most vocated areas for the production of white wines.
