THE WINE
This Friulano, like all Confinis wines, is relatively young; in fact, the winery was founded in 2017 from the will of Francesco Rotolo, who, in addition to being a young winemaker, is also a son of art; in fact, his family created two wineries, Mario Schiopetto and Volpe Pasini.
Francesco selected a few hectares of hills between Capriva del Friuli and Cormons where, thanks to his experience, he wants to create fresh and pleasant wines with low alcohol content.
The Friulian vine gives its best on the Gorizia Collio; thanks to the soils rich in marl and sandstone, the grapes are full of fragrant aromas.
THE WINEMAKING
The harvest is strictly manual and occurs in the first ten days of September. Once in the cellar, the must ferments in steel for a period ranging between 10 and 12 days at a controlled temperature of 15/16° C. The wine ages in steel for about seven months, and after bottling, it rests in the cellar for a few months before being placed on the market.
THE TASTING
Straw yellow with greenish reflections. The aroma is fresh and fragrant with notes of exotic fruit such as pineapple and lime that leave room for hints of almond. Fresh and fragrant also on the palate, well structured with a pleasant aftertaste of fresh almonds on the finish. Persistent.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Perfect as an aperitif, it goes well with cured meats, vegetables and fish. Try it with Italian frittata.
