Vigna Del Lauro Cabernet Franc Isonzo DOC

Delicious dark berry flavor and notes of pepper with a surprisingly refreshing acidity. This Cabernet Franc boasts a smooth and elegant mid-palate and graceful finish. The alcohol content is a moderate 12.5%, making this an ideal wine to enjoy with or without food. On warmer days, it’s nice served slightly chilled.


Italian Wine Report on 2021 vintage

Bright, medium-deep ruby red; aromas of bing cherry, black cherry and a hint of nutmeg. Medium-bodied, this has ideal ripeness, medium-weight tannins, good acidity and very good varietal purity. Very appealing, with excellent harmony. Very nice value. Enjoy over the next 2-3 years.

 

Vigna Del Lauro Chardonnay Isonzo DOC

This lightly oaked Chardonnay is a fine example of the Friuli terroir, expressing classic weight and structure with aromas of crisp apple, white flowers and subtle hints of tropical fruit and vanilla spice. A lively palate with a satisfying weight, this wine finishes with just the balance between fruit, minerality, and acidity. The value of this Chardonnay cannot be overstated compared to classic Burgundy or California Chardonnay.
