Petrussa Friuli Colli Orientali Schioppettino di Prepotto 2020 NO20231025 followed with a lingering finishA native Friulian red rediscovered, Schioppettino thrives on the sandstone marls called Ponka near Prepotto, revealing a savory world of wild berries, cyclamen, and cracked black pepper. Hand harvested and macerated with delestages before 24 months in wood, this elegant wine balances soft tannins with a long, persistent finish that whispers of earth and alpine altitude. Pair it with mushroom risotto or roasted meats to unlock its full potential.
