Ronco del Gnemiz, Rosso Del Gnemiz, 2022
The wine that established this estate's reputation—in continuous production since 1981 yet relatively unknown outside serious wine circles. Serena Palazzolo brought organic viticulture to this Friuli hilltop property in the 1990s; today she manages it with her oenologist husband Christian. The blend (50% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot) ages 20 months in oak, sourced from their oldest parcels on "Ponca"—a mineral-rich sandstone that defines Colli Orientali character. Cool Adriatic breezes lend a salty quality. This is the insider's Friuli red: European sophistication with distinctive minerality and aging potential at a fraction of comparable costs. Decant 45-60 minutes.
