The 2007 Friulano opens with exotic, expressive aromatics. Succulent yellow peaches, flowers, apricots and mint are some of the notes that emerge from the glass. The 2007 is an intense, full-bodied wine laced with expressive fruit. It possesses gorgeous depth and purity all the way through to the sensual, enveloping finish. The 2007 was fermeneted in a Slavonian oak vat and saw four days of contact with the skins. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017.
It’s great to see the Bensa family making wines of such distinction from their hillside vineyards in the heart of Collio. Quality and consistency have both been on the rise over the last few years under the leadership of Stefano Bensa. The 2007s were macerated from 4 days to 2 months on the skins and aged predominantly in cask. Bensa describes 2007 as a year with an early harvest, much like 2001.
