Description

This mature Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso comes from Il Castello, a historic Friulian estate celebrated for producing structured, age-worthy wines from this distinctive indigenous grape. The 1976 vintage displays a deep garnet-red colour with brick-orange highlights, reflecting nearly five decades of careful ageing.

On the nose, it reveals complex aromas of dried black cherries, plum, hints of cocoa, gentle spice, and subtle notes of leather, tobacco, and earthy forest floor. The palate is refined and harmonious, with softened yet structured tannins supporting flavours of stewed dark fruits, hints of mocha, and delicate herbal nuances. The finish is long, elegant, and balanced, highlighting the depth, finesse, and classic Friulian character of mature Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso.

Decanting: Stand the bottle upright for 2–3 days prior to opening to allow any sediment to settle. Decant slowly and carefully through a fine strainer, allowing 1–2 hours of gentle aeration before serving at 16–18°C. A fragile cork is very common with older bottles, where the wine has been in prolonged contact with the cork over many decades. We therefore recommend straining any cork fragments during the decanting process.
