More questions
The Refoscolo del Peduncolo Riserva DOC Friuli Colli Orientali produced by La Viarte winery represents an excellent example of how careful winemaking can enhance the intrinsic qualities of a native Friulian grape variety. This vintage is available in Jeroboam format, ensuring not only an impactful tasting experience but also a wonderful option for special occasions.
Cultivated in the picturesque hills of the Colli Orientali del Friuli, Refoscolo, also known for its red stalk that persists after harvest, is a grape variety that requires great care both in the vineyard and in the winery. La Viarte focuses especially on manual harvesting, selecting only the best clusters, before moving on to a vinification process that follows methods aimed at preserving all the aromatic nuances typical of the grape.
After a period of maceration at controlled temperature, the wine matures in barrique for several months, during which it acquires complexity and a balanced tannic structure. The result is a deep Ruby red wine, with garnet reflections that become more pronounced with aging.
On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of wild berries, spices, and a slight herbal note, which enhance its freshness and authenticity. On the palate, the Refoscolo del Peduncolo Riserva is full, harmonious, with a well-integrated tannic texture and a long, persistent finish.
This wine pairs wonderfully with traditional Friulian dishes, such as frico with potatoes, but is also ideal for accompanying grilled red meats or roasts. Serve at a temperature of 18-20°C to fully appreciate its qualities.
A prestigious addition to a collector's cellar, the Refoscolo del Peduncolo Riserva is a true tribute to Friulian winemaking tradition, housed in a bottle that celebrates the art of wine.

The story
La Viarte was established as a production company in the Colli Orientali del Friuli and is recorded as having been founded in 1973. Over the years it has developed dedicated ranges and, in 2023, returned to public attention thanks to a new management phase with the arrival of the Polegato family, who relaunched the company while maintaining its focus on the local area.
Production philosophy
The winery places respect for the territory, the enhancement of native grape varieties, and a detail-oriented cellar approach at its core: targeted winemaking by type, selective use of oak for red wines, and limited production to emphasize quality and territorial identity.
Terroir and vineyards
The winery is located on the hills of the Friuli Colli Orientali DOC, near the border with Slovenia. The vineyards grow on marly-sandy soils, which impart structure and minerality to the wines.
