Aromas of dried pineapple and honey followed through to a full-bodied palate, with luscious fruit and a medium finish. A pleasing white, offering loads of fruit on the palate. Rating: 90 The Wine Spectator, www.winespectator.com (Apr 2007)
Inviting aromas of grapefruit pith, lemon oil, white flowers and gin. Fresh and crisp, the lively acids framing and lifting the flavors of apple, pear and grapefruit. The dry finish shows good grip and persistence. Rating: 88 Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Mar 2006)
Schiopetto
Mario Schiopetto is recognised as the true father of Friulan oenology, transforming the wines of the region from the once traditionally heavy and alcoholic to the better known fresh and aromatic wines produced today. His was a philosophy of simplicity, technology and sensitivity, all of which is continued by the new generation, Maria Angela, Carlo and Giorgio who today manage the estate. These are Italy's finest white wines.
