2014 Production
Grapes are predominantly Tocai Friulano with Malvasia and Ribolla Gialla. We’re talking more skin contact here than in the entire Emmanuelle trilogy.
Maturation
75% in stainless steel and up to 25% in barrel for 6 months: three quarters of which were 2nd or 3rd French oak 300l barrels.
Tasting notes
Skin contact gives this an attractive pithy bitterness. Subtle tannins add superb length and complexity.
