Colli Orientali Del Friuli, Udine, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2009 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of tart black fruit: black brambles, black cherry, black currants, wood varnish, dried herbs, and stony earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Very Italian…which is complimentary, ovviamente! Drink now through 2029.
