Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC - Gori 2018

The Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso from the Colli Orientali del Friuli by Gori immediately reveals a solid structure: an intense ruby color and an aromatic weave that recalls ripe wild berries, cherry and hints of plum, with a light spicy nuance and an herbal background that provides tension. The freshness is lively, well balanced by a pleasant savory note, and the whole suggests a decisive character without ever becoming harsh.

On the palate the sip is dense and coherent, with tannins that are present but well integrated and a pleasant roundness that balances the mid-palate; the finish is sustained and invites a second taste. It pairs well with characterful dishes such as grilled meats, light game and aged cheeses, and stands up to rustic flavors and concentrated sauces; serve at a moderate temperature or let it breathe briefly to enhance aromas and structure. A rustic and elegant companion for those who love authentic, flavorful wines.
