The best wines from Friuli Colli Orientali to try
Valentino Butussi – Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio Ramato Madonna d’Aiuto 2019
Ramato / Orange wine – Up-and-coming winery
Fermenting on the skins and spending 8-10 months in 700-liter casks, the intense copper color anticipates charming aromas of wild strawberries, yellow peach, sandalwood, ginseng, cinnamon, and candied orange rind – not unlike those of a young and light Pinot Noir. Lovely Ponka salinity cuts through a rich and creamy, red-fruited structure, while light tannins add to its tactile texture, leaving the palate pleasantly dry.
