"This was a smooth taste which went perfect with a salad, some mild cheeses or stand-alone by itself. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying some evening conversation. Nice finish, clean with a hint of floral and fruit."
2023 Rotondo Friulano
From Italy’s Northeast Friuli-Venezia Giulia region comes a charming white wine bursting with acidity and a smooth mineral finish. The 2023 Rotondo Fruiliano DOC is dry on the palate with aromatic wildflowers, grapefruit, and subtle hints of almond. Often mistaken for Sauvignon Blanc, this wine is light-bodied with crisp citrus notes and slightly savory flavors. This elegant white comes from the Cargnelutti family, known for crafting wines using traditional Friuli methods since the 1960s. The 2023 Rotondo Fruiliano DOC is well-suited for lighter meat dishes like white fish and roasted chicken. It is also lovely with cooked green vegetables or as an aperitif. Chill slightly before serving to get the most out of those delicate fruit and floral notes.

"This was a smooth taste which went perfect with a salad, some mild cheeses or stand-alone by itself. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying some evening conversation. Nice finish, clean with a hint of floral and fruit."
"Have spent much time over the years in Friuli area of Italy, and Friulano ( previously called Tocai) has always been a favorite. This vendors version is no exception. ALso love the red Refosco from Fruili, and disappointing you stopped carrying that."
"It has a hint of white-flowery smooth aftertaste. It doesn't taste 13% alcohol, doesn't have any acidity either. If you are familiar with oaky, buttery, and fruity white, it is not for you. It's gonna be perfect for the summer brunch or aperitivo. Keep it chill. It goes well with green salad, white fish carpaccio, tuna and lemon chicken. Enjoy!"
"Fresh and lovely for a summer sip while sitting on my balcony."
"Loved it!"
"I really enjoy this wine, it's very pleasant wine."
"Harsh. Strange taste."
"I love that this wine is light, well balanced and has a dry finish. Very versatile, complimenting light fare, seafood etc. . . . The 2022 vintage was even better. I ordered cases of this stuff, pleasing to all. Recommended."
"Nice smooth fruit flavor, yet crisp on the swallow."
"This is on my “Reorder” list!"
