The 2018 Zof Daniele Zof Il Pignolo presents a deep garnet hue, indicative of its robust nature. On the nose, it unfurls a complex bouquet of dark cherry, dried fig, and a hint of anise, underscored by a subtle earthiness. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with firm tannins that promise aging potential. Its vibrant acidity balances the rich fruit core, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish. This wine exemplifies the quintessential character of Friuli's Pignolo, offering both depth and elegance, making it a compelling choice for those exploring Italy's indigenous varietals.

Hailing from the Friuli Venezia Giulia region in northeastern Italy, 'Il Pignolo' is crafted from the Pignolo grape, known for its robust structure and deep color. The vineyard benefits from a temperate climate, with cooling breezes from the nearby Adriatic Sea aiding in the slow ripening of the grapes. This wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel to preserve its natural fruit characteristics, followed by aging in oak barrels to enhance its complexity. The result is a full-bodied red with firm tannins, showcasing dark fruit flavors and a balanced acidity, suitable for aging or immediate enjoyment.
