The ruby red color with purplish reflections that fade with ageing. Intense bouquet, which evokes wild blackberries, wild berries with winy and vegetable notes. Strong flavour, the tannins are integrated and the finish is pleasantly bitter. Refosco dal peduncolo rosso is an ancient Friulian vine, perhaps the best Friulian variety of red berried grapes.

A small part (25%) is vinified in white; a part about 40% is placed in cold maceration for 36 hours, for a greater extraction of the pink part. For both, a soft pressing and a start with indigenous fermentation then helped halfway through the addition of a small amount of selected yeast to complete the fermentation. The remaining part of the grapes is pressed, cooled to 7 degrees and left to macerate until the indigenous fermentation begins (usually 5 to 6 days). The macerated product is placed in a press and squeezed at minimum pressure, the must thus obtained continues its fermentation in traditional 2nd and 3rd passage barrels, in non-toasted oak with a capacity of 5/7 HL. One month before bottling, the three different vinifications are combined to form a single wine.

At sight it has a straw yellow color, characterized by soft copper-colored reflections. The nose is typically varietal, with floral notes of acacia flowers which are embellished with touches of green apple and pear. On the palate it is full-bodied, with a savory-acidic vein that makes the sip drinkable. It ends with a finish characterized by a slightly bitter aftertaste.

This ancient vine is the pride and joy of Friuli, the grapes are harvested manually and differentiated according to maturation with twice-weekly passages and takes place throughout the month of October. For the vinification of this wine, 10% of the harvested grapes are vinified in the classic way, soft pressing, settling and controlled fermentation. The remaining 90% of the grapes are left to dry for over a month, losing about 40% of the weight. The highly concentrated must obtained is fermented in small oak barrels, where it remains until the summer. Then the two wines are blended and aged for another 4 months in steel barrels. The refinement takes 6-8 months in the bottle.
