Dario Raccaro "Vigna del Rolat" Collio Friulano 2014

$29.99

Dario Raccaro is a name you will want to put on your shortlist. We adore his Friulano bottling from his 2ha in Vigna del Rolat in most years, and the 2014 is a wine that we just can't stop thinking about. Friulano is a grape that often impresses with its richness, weight and beguiling texture. Raccaro's '14 certainly displays those qualities, but it appeals on so many more levels this vintage. '14 was a tough year throughout many parts of Italy, Collio included. Despite the cooler, rainy conditions, Raccaro clearly rose to the challenge and has turned out an absolute beauty. The wine is a full 1% lower in alcohol than usual and displays a profound sense of verve, lift and minerality that are not as evident in warmer years.

Both delightful. There is an impressive combination of lush fruit and steely elegance in the Italian. The Burgundy is similarly restrained but minerals replace velvet. A good wine night. Much needed.

Some still white for those at WND night dinner who had a bad high school indulgence with “Champagne” and have never been able to recover. But really, let’s be honest...you were pounding Cooks from the bottle, you weren’t drinking Champagne.

I am really digging this wine. Lots of citrus and white flower, with a round honeydew taste on the back end. Good acidity and weight.
