About this wine

Vinification

The grapes are gently destemmed and then macerated for a week at 4 °C, which preserves the wine's freshness and its bright, deep aromas. Fermentation takes place in steel vats to retain the grape's natural varietal character.

Ageing

The wine matures on the lees in steel until spring.

Label / history

Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso is a native Friulian variety, mentioned as far back as the Roman Empire, when it also acquired its name. Bottling in spring is a Collavini family tradition.
