A red wine with energy and contour: "Rosso del Gnemiz" combines Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon – a classic cuvée that has its very own Friulian character. The grapes come from various plots around San Giovanni al Natisone, whose Ponca soils lend depth and structure. The 2022 vintage produced ripe, healthy berries that retained their tension thanks to cool nights. Brilliant ruby red in the glass with a youthful glow. The bouquet opens with fresh black cherry, sour cherry and plum, as well as herbs, tobacco, violets and a subtle graphite note. On the palate, it shows taut, juicy fruit, concise, still youthful tannins and a lively acidity that gives it a clear contour. The barrel ageing provides additional depth, but remains discreetly in the background.

"Rosso del Gnemiz" 2022 is still at the beginning of its development: an exciting wine with a clear profile of origin that will develop harmoniously with a few years of ageing in the bottle. But it already impresses with its precision and expression – a worthy prelude to the world of Ronco del Gnemiz. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Rosso del Gnemiz is darkly floral, with a spicy wave of cedar shavings, ginger spice, rose petals and dried black cherries. It balances textures of pure silk with cooling acidity and polished red berry fruits to create a truly seductive sensation on the palate. The finish is classically dry and structured, leaving a tart raspberry saturation that puckers the cheeks. Have patience with this child of a warm vintage because, while its fruit is pushed forward, the balance within is spellbinding. This is a blend of 65% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot." Vinous
