Bastianich Vini Orsone Schioppetino 2022

A still red from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, 12.5% ABV, produced by Bastianich. 100% Schioppettino, 2022 vintage. A wine that embodies the Bastianich family’s passion for wine, born in the 1970s and 1980s with the promotion of the finest Friulian wines. On the nose, what we might consider its signature—spicy notes (black pepper throughout)—emerge with clarity and incredible olfactory definition, accompanied by sweet, subtle, and delicate fruit that makes it elegant from the first sip. A slightly pale ruby red color with delicate purple highlights. On the palate, the silky sensation evokes a balance and elegance of the highest caliber, with tannins and acidity that are clearly present yet extremely measured.
