Mario Schiopetto Friulano Collio Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy 2023

This is very minerally and smoky, with matchstick undertones to the grilled lemon and dried apple aromas. Turns to honeysuckle and fresh lemongrass on the palate. It’s medium- to full-bodied, tangy and energetic, with hints of bitter lemons and rose stems. Excellent finish. Drink now.
