The 2020 Friulano Dolée opens with crushed stone, pungent florality, moist underbrush and hints of kiwi skins. It's soft and enveloping with ripe peach and tropical leanings, as zesty acids add a pinch of spicy tension. This tapers off with sapid fruits and long, as a pleasant inner sweetness gives way to hints of almond paste. A sexy vintage of Dolée.

A racy white, loaded with pink grapefruit and tangerine fruit and zest flavor, a subtle streak of salinity and notes of white pepper, crunchy peach, lentil and flint. Drink now through 2027. 300 cases made, 100 cases imported.

Varietal: Tocai Friulano

The straw yellow wines made from the Tocai Fruiliano grape have been popular for centuries, and in their native home of Friulia in northern Italy, they are greatly prized and perfectly matched with the stunning seafood the region is home to. The Tocai Fruiliano varietal grape grows well in northern Italy, where the vines thrive on the well drained hillsides which receive plenty of sunshine, and the vines have also been successfully cultivated in the New World, where they are commonly known as Sauvignon Vert. Generally, Tocai Fruiliano produces wines which have a strong set of flavours, ranging from bright and fresh citrus, to softer orchard fruit, peach and pear notes. They are most commonly recognised by their powerful aroma of wild flowers.

Region: Friuli-Venezia Giulia

The beautiful, mountainous region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia in northern Italy is home to many of the countries finest and most interesting wines. Because of the region's close proximity to the Austrian and Slovenian borders, there is a fascinating Germanic influence on the wine culture of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, where you are as likely to find delicious, crisp white Riesling and Pinot Bianco wines alongside more classic Italian varietals, such as Pinot Grigio. The white wines of the region are renowned for their alpine character, and are prized for their dryness, and their ability to express their fantastic terroir. Friuli-Venezia Giulia's location, between the Alps and the Adriatic, provides plenty of fresh and airy character to the wines which are produced here, and the region is becoming increasingly popular with those seeking something a little different from their Italian white wines.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
