From producer Robert Princic, the Gradis'Ciutta 2019 Collio Friulano is packaged in the estate's distinctive triangle-top bottle. This is a lovely value wine with a generous bouquet that peels back to reveal orchard fruit, peach and candied orange peel. The intensity of those aromas is impressive and seamless. I came back to my open bottle two days later, and the wine was just as fresh, vibrant and compelling as when I left it. This is a good occasion to make some traditional Friulian cjalson, or boiled dumplings with the filling of your choice—in this case I would go with some pancetta in the stuffing.

The 2012 Collio Friulano is a beautifully generous and fragrant white wine that is laced with ripe fruit, peach, dried lemon and blanched almond. You really can’t beat the intensity and purity of the bouquet. In the mouth, this wine wins points for the soothing texture and creamy texture it shows. In terms of Friulano, this is one of the nicest expressions out there. Drink: 2014-2016. Importer: Wine Emporium, www.wineemporiumny.com

The 2010 Friulano flows across the palate with an attractive fabric of white peaches, flowers and mint. Hints of tangerine and crushed rocks appear later, adding brightness and focus to the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2015. Importer: Wine Emporium, Brooklyn, NY; tel. (718) 486-3913
