Product information compiled from producer, importer and reference sources.
Intense golden yellow, varietal, elegant, with great character, intense notes of candied fruits, pastries, apricot and fig integrated to aromas of orange blossom, acacia honey and elegant spices. a wine with a great complexity; soft, savory, articulate, with balanced acidity and sweetness.
Picolit is Friuli's noblest wine, but its origins are still a matter for debate. It is only since 1750, thanks to the writings of Count Fabio Asquini, that we have any accurate documentation of this "nectar produced by the meagre berries of the bunch".
The peculiarity of this odd, delicate vine is the partial fertilisation of its flowers. This means that only a few, very concentrated berries ripen in each bunch.
A complex wine the colour of old gold, Picolit marries sweet and acidulous sensations, releasing a pervasive aroma of candid peel, vanilla and spring flowers. In the past, Picolit was the wine of Europe's nobility. Today, it is admired as a prestigious meditation wine.
