'Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso' Venezia Giulia IGP Pierpaolo Pecorari 2020

Venezia Giulia Refosco PGI is a red wine produced by the Pierpaolo Pecorari farm which well expresses the territory of Friuli Venezia Giulia. This label is a real queen of oenology, which takes shape from Refosco dal peduncolo Rosso grapes vinified in purity, the fruit of vines grown in the countryside of San Lorenzo Isontino, in that of Mossa and in that of Capriva del Friuli. A terroir wine which, thanks to the meticulous work in the vineyard and in the cellar, perfectly expresses all the typicality of the Friulian winemaking tradition. This excellent red takes shape from a careful harvest. After harvesting, the grapes are taken to the cellar where they macerate for 20 days in steel tanks. Subsequently, the Venezia Giulia Refosco PGI ages for 10 months in French oak barrels, after which the wine is bottled. Before being placed on the market, however, it still matures briefly in glass. The final product is a red with good aging capacity. An important label, juicy and round, for a well-defined wine with excellent persistence. The nose is dominated by notes of ripe red berry fruit, enriched by more spicy nuances, from which a touch of tobacco emerges. On the palate it is medium-bodied, ample, with an almost tactile sip, characterized by a nice refreshing texture.
