    The Friulano grape is indigenous to Friuli and was one of the first made by Mario Schiopetto, as the first production of this Friulano was 1965. This is a full-bodied white with a savoury characteristic that is versatile with pairings and has a  signature high acidity. Fermentation is in stainless steel for 10-12 days then aged 8 months then aged in moves to its final stage in bottle for a minimum of 5 months. Notes of almond, apricot and pear dominate the palate while the nose is blossomed with herbaceousness, seaweed and grapefruit. Pair this with anything from cured meats, vongole pasta, game and chicken - this is a white to be served with your mains.

    Fresh & Spicy

    Rivarossa stands for the name of the cadastral parcel that resides on the property, this ruby coloured red was first produced in 1968. Every single grape that goes into the Rivarossa is manually harvested and destemmed and fermented separately. The soil of Rivarossa is predominately clay and each vintage produced has a unique fermentation and refinement period unique to the phenolic conditions of the grapes in each vintage. Notes of blackberry, liquorice, tobacco and black pepper compliment the velvety mouthfeel. Malolactic fermentation is the culprit for the incredible mouthfeel then ageing in oak barrels for 14 months that gives its nice toasty warmth on the finish.

    Soft & Elegant

    This white is new to the legendary collection of Mario Schiopetto whites being that this is its first vintage, 2020! Although this Sauv Blanc is soft and elegant, do not be fooled - there is a ton of structure here. Notes of fresh flowers with hints of exotic nuances. The long finish and plush acidity is the stand out with this particular wine. The terroir comes through the wine with green notes on the nose, gravel on the palate and green hues blending with its straw yellow colour.

    Delicate & Elegant

    This unique blend of the oldest vines of the Friulano grape on the property that were planted in 1954 with Riesling grapes that reside on a pristine south-facing side of the property. This full-bodied white is considered top of the line within the famous whites of Mario Schiopetto. A rich mouthfeel is accompanied with notes of custard, sweet almond, pear and quince. This show stopping white is juxtaposed with a delicate nose and strong palate that finishes with a beautifully strong minerality.

    Elegant & Complex

    This specific clone of Refosco is called Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso which is a result of a viticulture pursuit that started in 2000. The first vintage of this wine was in 2001. This specific  area in which these grapes grow is a microclimate that is now known as Podere dei Blumeri. This blend of soft and strong delivers an incredible bouquet of blue and purple flowers, blackcurrant, morello cherry with balsamic and tobacco on the finish.
