The 2012 Isonzo del Friuli Rive Alte Friulano Toc Bas (aged one year in oak cask) caps the estate’s trilogy of excellent mono-varietal whites (along with Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio) with similar richness and impressive intensity. The smoothness and textural creaminess are outstanding and the wine leaves a long, polished finish that is enhanced by apricot, toasted almond and baked pineapple. This is a gorgeous Friulano that would taste wonderfully with grilled tilapia in mango salsa. Drink: 2014-2018.
