Schiopetto’s Collio Friulano is produced in the hillside vineyards of the Collio region, on ponca soils that give the wine a distinct territorial identity and a natural mineral character. The Friulano grapes are harvested by hand and vinified according to the winery’s philosophy, which is based on precision, elegance and respect for the raw material. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and aromatic integrity. Ageing continues in stainless steel on the fine lees, with periodic bâtonnage, which imparts greater structure and complexity without compromising the wine’s expressive finesse.
Visually, it presents a bright straw-yellow colour. On the nose, it is refined and elegant, with aromas of white flowers, pear, apple and citrus, accompanied by typical notes of almond and delicate mineral undertones. On the palate, it is balanced and harmonious, with fresh acidity, a pleasant savouriness and a supple structure leading to a persistent finish, characterised by the classic, slightly bitter aftertaste typical of Friulano.
A highly versatile wine, ideal as an aperitif but also perfect throughout a meal. It pairs excellently with light starters, fish dishes, San Daniele prosciutto, fresh cheeses and traditional Friulian cuisine.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 10–12°C.
