A new tasting experience on several levels. Had never heard of or tasted this grape varietal, Schioppettino. I was looking for a lighter red off the menu at Settimo, Guy Grossi’s new Brisbane venture. Chosen purely because of its location in Friuli ie. cooler climate. The Somm was in the dark but the wine ended up being a revelation. Red cherry and cranberry - intense white pepper on nose and palate. Dried red florals. Love this style. Will be on the lookout for this Cuvée in the future. — a year ago

Porch sweet chilled red wine. Kind of like a sangria — 3 years ago
Primarily made with the native Cataratto grape, this Sicilian white features fresh and fruity aromas of yellow apple, peach, white flowers and a touch of lemon zest. Same fruits on the pallet. Hint of saline on the finish. Mild (but tangy) acidity helps this wine to be quite thirst quenching and refreshing. Straw gold color and lovely texture. — 4 years ago
This is a new grape variety for me from Langhe.
Reddish in color with a purplish hue.
Showing strawberries, raspberries, tart cranberries, light herbs, earth and dark chocolates.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with mild complexity.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins.
A very interesting dry red from Langhe. Feels like Nebbiolo.
100% Freisa grapes were aged for 9 months in mostly large Slavonian oak barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
