This variety needs no introduction and has also found much space in Friuli. The low yields and strong stripping favour a more 'southern' maturation. Maceration is not too long and during this phase great care is taken to separate the grape seeds. The result is a wine with an intense colour, warm aromas and a rounded taste, where the tannin expresses itself above all with elegance.
