Colli Orientali del Friuli Refosco dal Penduncolo Rosso
Colli Orientali Del Friuli, Udine, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
A great example of Refosco from its home in Friuli, Italy. The color is a deep red with a dark core. The color here is what's interesting as the acidity is off the charts in a good way. It's rare to come across a wine this deeply colored and high in acidity. The density of flavor is excellent, with clear and freshly snappy blackberry, raspberry, tart plum, violet florals and slight bitter note that adds a spice accent to the palate. Firm and ripe tannin add to the acidity forming a great structural base.
An insane value at about $20.
Sunday night refresher! #refosco #friuli

Unexpected tart red fruit - decent weight & tannins but not terribly sexy or interesting/ not how I remember
