Winemaker Notes: The Bastianich winery, founded in 1997, strives to understand the history and culture of Friuli-Venezia Giulia and take it to a new level. They create unique wines that speak of place but, at the same time, show remarkable power and balance. Vespa Bianco and Vespa Rosso are named after the ever-present wasps attracted to ripe grapes. These blends are made in an area known for single-varietal wines, shifting the focus from the grape to the terroir. Calabrone, which means hornet, is an estate reserve red blend made only in the best vintages with hand-destemmed, partially dried fruit, and is released 5 years after the vintage. Native varieties, such as Tocai Friulano, are unblended to showcase the uniqueness of the grape. The pinnacle of this being Tocai Plus, a particularly complex example made with late-harvest and dried fruit from a single-vineyard of 60 year-old vines.

Tasting Notes: Aromas of tropical fruit, mint and green leaves. Fresh and elegant, it has a crisp acidity and long, refreshing finish.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "The fresh herbs, such as mint and thyme, are very pretty on the nose, as are the green-apple, basil and praline notes. The palate is very linear and focused with bright but not overpowering acidity. Medium body and a tangy, textured finish."
