Vigna Del Lauro Friulano Collio DOC 2023

James Suckling (89)- "A complex wine with ambitious style. Aromas of ferns, white peaches, lots of white pepper and toasted notes. The attack is silky on the palate, medium- to full-bodied, with elegant, integrated acidity, a super-polished finish and a long aftertaste. Drinkable now, but will last."

Vigna Del Lauro Friulano Collio DOC 2019

Wine Enthusiast (90)- "Aromas of mature yellow stone fruit, grapefruit and beeswax mingle together in the glass. Mirroring the nose, the medium-bodied, savory palate features ripe apricot, peach and hazelnut before finishing on a honeyed note. Fresh acidity accompanies the rich flavors."
