The 2020 Friulano Dolée opens with crushed stone, pungent florality, moist underbrush and hints of kiwi skins. It's soft and enveloping with ripe peach and tropical leanings, as zesty acids add a pinch of spicy tension. This tapers off with sapid fruits and long, as a pleasant inner sweetness gives way to hints of almond paste. A sexy vintage of Dolée.

A racy white, loaded with pink grapefruit and tangerine fruit and zest flavor, a subtle streak of salinity and notes of white pepper, crunchy peach, lentil and flint. Drink now through 2027. 300 cases made, 100 cases imported.
Winery
COLOR: Straw yellow color with golden hues. NOSE: The bouquet on the nose is delicate and intense with notes of white flowers and pineapple on a background of vanilla. FLAVOR: On the palate it is fruity, rich, and well balanced between freshness and fullness.

Varietal: Tocai Friulano

The straw yellow wines made from the Tocai Fruiliano grape have been popular for centuries, and in their native home of Friulia in northern Italy, they are greatly prized and perfectly matched with the stunning seafood the region is home to. The Tocai Fruiliano varietal grape grows well in northern Italy, where the vines thrive on the well drained hillsides which receive plenty of sunshine, and the vines have also been successfully cultivated in the New World, where they are commonly known as Sauvignon Vert. Generally, Tocai Fruiliano produces wines which have a strong set of flavours, ranging from bright and fresh citrus, to softer orchard fruit, peach and pear notes. They are most commonly recognised by their powerful aroma of wild flowers.

Region: Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Situated in the north of Italy, between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, Friuli-Venezia Giulia is a fascinating and ancient wine region which is only just being discovered by the international wine audiences, keen to uncover more lesser known gems of Italy. Because Friuli-Venezia Giulia is so close to the Austrian and Slovenian borders, the wines there display a distinctly Germanic character, and typically Germanic grape varietals such as Riesling grow extremely well there, and capture much of their stunning alpine terroir. As such, alpine freshness, crystal clear mountain water and beautifully dry and crisp notes are what Friuli-Venezia Giulia's wines are most renowned for, and the Riesling, Pinot Bianco and Pinot Grigio wines of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, made by small, dedicated and traditional wineries, are considered amongst the finest in the world.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
