Colli Orientali Del Friuli DOC Schioppettino La Tunella 2021 75 cl

Eastern Hills of Friuli DOC Schioppettino La Tunella

The Schioppettino La Tunella, upon tasting, presents a deep ruby red color, flowing smoothly and consistently into the glass, tracing rich, dense arcs that hint at the structure of the wine. The nose displays bold, full aromas of walnuts, dried figs, and small dark berries, with fresh balsamic and menthol wafts and hints of wood and undergrowth. The palate is broad, juicy, and enveloping, with a decidedly velvety touch that doesn't sacrifice vigor and power, especially in the tannic structure, which is clearly present yet perfectly blended with the context. The finish is long and consistent, extending across the entire olfactory spectrum.

COMBINATIONS

Such a powerful red wine pairs well with flavorful dishes like roasts, grilled red meats, game, and mature cheeses. It's perfect with a green peppercorn fillet.
