Honey, cantaloupe, flowers and juicy apricots flow effortlessly from the 2009 Friulano. This is a decidedly opulent, flashy Friulano. I am not sure it will age more than a few years, but it will offer fabulous drinking over the near-term. There is enough inner perfume, along with a touch of sweetness, to make me think it might pair nicely with dishes that pack some heat Rating: 90 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)

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.
