This north Italian wine is a rare gem! More info

Enzo Pontoni is a producer in northern Italy who has built a solid reputation for himself in the region. He vines are his life and he cultivates them organically with laudable care and respect. Refosco dal peduncolo rosso is an emblematic varietal of this region that neighbours Slovenia and Austria. It owes its name to the colour of the stem that connects the bunch to the plant. After a necessary 3 or 4 years in the cellar, this wine has an intense ruby colour in the glass. Its aromatic bouquet gives off notes of forest fruits, and we find these same flavours on the palate. It has an affirmed tannic structure and persists well. This is a generous wine that pairs well with regional dishes like beef stew, mushroom risotto, and local charcuterie. Careful, this cuvée is only made in small quantities!

Colli Orientali del Friuli Refosco Miani serve at a temperature of 15°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Côte de bœuf au barbecue, Poêlée de champignons, Lasagnes d'aubergines au parmesan.

Information about domain Miani

Situated at the north Italian border, at the heart of the Friuli-Venezia-Giulia appellation, Miani benefits from its northern position at the foot of the Alps; the climate here is temperate and continental, refreshed by the cool air of the mountains. Led masterfully by Enzo Pontoni, this domain has forged a reputation through the producer's true love for his plants and other raw materials. The work carried out in the vines is meticulous in order to preserve the terroir and let it express itself through these intense resulting wines. In the same vein, work in the cellar leaves nothing to chance, letting the dynamic aspects of nature come through with precise proceedings. These wines are sought for their maturity, their refinement, and their strong personality. The whites and reds alike can be enjoyed young or after a bit of ageing, served at the table with a regional dish, for example.
