If readers want to make an argument about terroir, finesse, and elegance, allied with considerable flavor intensity, this wine offers plenty of evidence. The 1994 Tocai Friulano possesses a more pronounced aromatic expression than the 1994 Pinot Bianco, as well as a steely, wonderfully fresh palate with gobs of fruit, and excellent balance. Schiopetto is a legendary producer of Italian white wines that have long been considered benchmarks for their levels of fruit, texture, and intensity. They never see a day of oak, and are among the most natural wines grown in the soils of Italy's Friuli region. Although the prices are high, the three current offerings are impressive wines.
