Picolit Colli orientali del Friuli DOCG - Astucciato - Ronco dei Folo - Folonari 2015

This Picolit Colli Orientali del Friuli DOCG from Ronco dei Folo for Folonari is an elegant, characterful offering presented in a boxed package. In the glass it opens with fine aromas of white flowers, yellow-fleshed fruit and subtle hints of honey and almond; the bouquet remains coherent and clear without excess. On the palate it shows an enveloping texture, a balanced body and a pleasant progression leading to a persistent finish. The style is restrained and refined, suitable for those seeking a white with personality but without exuberance.

For serving, a cool but not cold temperature is recommended to highlight the aromas; open shortly before drinking to appreciate its expressiveness. It pairs well with delicate preparations such as fish starters, dishes based on shellfish and cooked vegetables, but can also accompany soft cheeses or lightly sweet desserts. At home, store in a cool, dark place and keep upright if intended for short-term consumption.
