La Viarte
Colli Orientali del Friuli Schioppettino di Prepotto
Full medium red-purple. Boasts delightful lift to the multidimensional aromas of red cherry, blackberry, green peppercorn, spices and smoky minerals. Then at once bright and fresh but also sweet and supple for a wine with noteworthy but harmonious acidity that provided clarity and cut. The flavors of raspberry, crushed blackcurrant and fresh herbs stand out for brilliant precision and sappiness. Finishes with serious but polished tannins with lingering herbal nuances and saliva-inducing acidity. Plenty of flavor and only 12.5% alcohol. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, May 2018)

After blowing off a bit of reductive funk this was a beautiful, rich food-friendlywine.

Ruby with a tinge of brick on the rim. Expressive fruity bouquet with red cherry, mint, and rosemary. First schiopettinno for me. Lots of concentration with balanced abv.
