The nose has fantastic aromas. Different in type, but intense and of remarkable quality. We hear the flowers of chamomile and mimosa, white peach and subtle hints of iodine, which lead us to what the sea wind brings. The candied zest of lemon and cedar, and wildflower honey are added and embellished.
It is wonderful on the palate. Silky and creamy, and at the same time very mineral. The ideas of wave, of wet rock, perceived on the nose, have concreteness in a truly remarkable verticality. Absolute respect for freshness, but it is the splendid expression of the thickness of the sip to give a high score.
It becomes easy to reward it as the best vintage Friulano. The Raccaro company is considered by the most expert and selective critic, one of the best in the whole of Friuli.
