Vineyard: Gradiscutta, San Floriano. Planted in 1936, South-East exposure, sandstone and clay, 50m a.s.l.
Grapes: Friulano 100% (fka Tokai Friulano, thus the name)
Making of: Grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and fermented spontaneously in open-topped oak vats with no temperature control, for a couple of days on the skins. Gently pressed and transferred to big Slavonian oak casks and left with the fine lees for a minimum of two years. Bottled by gravity, no fining, no filter, no SO2 added.
Personality: a paradise for lovers of graceful white wines! Honey, beeswax, a touch of salt, mingling generosity with a refreshing acidic backbone. Classy.
