2016 Schiopetto Collio Friulano M - Italy, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Collio (2/17/2019)

Opened by a friend. 95% Friulano and 5% Riesling from 52 year old vines. This is the top wine made by this estate which began making it in the 2015 vintage. It sells for about $70. Paired with a burrato, prosciutto and spinach first course. Straw color. Fuller body. Notes of lemon curd and minerals. An elegant wine. Very nice but I didn’t see the 98 points that James Suckling gave it. 92 points.
