The verduzzo grape hails from the Friuli region of northern Italy. The Pizzini family are firm believers in its potential in the King Valley. Their biggest problem to overcome is the grape's high tannins. Ripe, sweet fruit in this instance helps with plenty of tropical stone fruit, apricot and orange peel. It's a savoury expression with a dry, phenolic grip to close.

This is a richer and more textural white Italian varietal that shows an enticing nose with gently spiced baked apples and peaches, hints of mango and fresh-baked apricot pie. The palate texture is seductively smooth and even, showing luscious fleshy stone fruits and tropical nuances, it starts rich and then finishes lively and fresh.
