Heartbreaking, unique, unmistakable, these are just few of the adjectives used to describe this ancient and prestigious Friulian grape variety.
Its genetically straggly clusters (flower abortion) carry just a few, very sweet, golden-amber grapes.
Its harvesting and vinification are a rite which has been jealously handed down from generation to generation, its bunches are rigorously hand selected and harvested, then gently placed into a drying room.
After a long and pondered waiting, the grapes are softly crushed and the obtained must is put into solely dedicated oak 110-litre barrels, where it ferments slowly, softening out and evolving over time.
Our EOOS is just like that, born of history and time, warm and intense golden yellow, dense to the glass, silky to the palate, sweet and intriguing, with acacia and apricot hints and pastry-shop sensations.
PICOLIT evolves over time when bottled, it comes round, gains balance. Hence, it offers us intense emotions and a great history lesson.

Serving Temperature: 11 – 13 °C.
