Human factors
- The Tocai Friulano variety was introduced on the recommendation of the Brescia Provincial Inspectorate to replace Trebbiano del Lugana in outlying soils deemed unsuitable for that variety.
- From 2013, following the European ban on the use of the name Tocai, the variety resumed its dialectal name Tuchì. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)
Product characteristics
- Citrine yellow in color tending toward golden with aging; on the palate fresh, dry, and round with an almond finish.
- The variety's characteristic floral notes are enhanced by ripening; the bouquet is evolved and intense, with moderate acidity. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)
Terroir / wine link
- Calcareous-clay soil with abundant skeleton: the geological foundation that shapes the sensory profile of the white wine — fresh, round, with an almond finish.
