Schiopetto makes benchmark whites from Friuli, including this staple for us at Hi-Time: the region's namesake Friulano! The 2022 edition has a suave nose of ripe yellow stone fruits and ripe citrus, cooling, fresh herb, light hints of nutmeg and hazlenut. Aging on the lees contributes to a lightly creamy edge, and the acidity is tucked into the fruit giving it a refreshing flow that leads to an extended, clean finish. Hard to put down!

On the smooth, savory palate, tangy saline notes accompany ripe yellow pear, hazelnut, nutmeg and grapefruit. Abv: 13% Kerin O’Keefe August 2024 ©kerinokeefe.com"
"The 2022 Friulano wafts up with a delicate bouquet, blending minty herbs and wet stone with and lime zest. This flows across the palate with ease, crisp and cool-toned in feel, with saline mineral tones adding a tactile feel as candied citrus notes resonate throughout. It finishes clean and with medium length, leaving a salty sensation and the mouth watering for more." - Eric Guido, VINOUS MEDIA
