Product details
Friuli Colli Orientali DOC Refosco Magnum Cassa Legno 2014 La Roncaia
Description
The Friuli Colli Orientali Refosco of the La Roncaia company originates from vineyards located in the municipality of Nimis, in the province of Udine.
It is obtained only from Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso grapes, harvested late by hand and partially dried for about 8 weeks. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, with maceration of 25-30 days, at a controlled temperature. This is followed by aging in new and second passage French oak barrels for 18 months, and for a further 6 months in the bottle before being marketed.
In the glass it takes on an intense garnet red color with ruby reflections. On the nose it offers a complex and intense bouquet, with earthy and berry hints that give way to spicy and toasted fragrances. Warm and velvety, it turns out to be a full-bodied wine with great gustatory persistence.
Ideal in combination with grilled red meats, it is excellent to accompany game dishes.
