Tasting Notes
The 2018 Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso is deep and darkly alluring, with black currants complemented by violet florals, hints of sage and mint. This is silky in texture, with ripe red and black wild berries complemented by sweet spices, all energized by zesty acidity. It leaves a coating of sweet liquid florals, ripe blackberries and hints of vanillin oak, while tapering off long and lightly tannic. What the 2018 lacks in power it makes up for with lovely concentration and sheer drinkability. That said, this will enjoy a lovely evolution over the next decade or more.
