This is a dark, savoury, food-hungry wine with a wild streak that sets it apart from the international grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrown in the Lison-Pramaggiore zone on the Veneto-Friuli border, farmed biodynamically by the estate, Refosco takes its name from the red stalk of its bunches. It is a variety built for the table: deeply coloured, firmly acidic and unapologetically rustic in the best sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe glass shows a dense, inky purple and a nose of blackberry, black plum and sour cherry lifted by violet, black pepper, bitter herbs and a note of damp earth. The palate is medium-to-full, with brisk acidity, grippy tannins and a savoury, almost bloody finish that tails off on dark fruit and spice. Not a crowd-pleaser in the polished sense, but hugely rewarding with the right food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt £39.99 this is a characterful, individual red for the curious drinker who values authenticity over gloss. Drink now through the next three to five years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Serve\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 16-18°C in a medium-to-large red glass. Decant 30-45 minutes to soften the tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere to Drink It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBocca di Lupo for regional Italian cooking. Lino for its Italian small plates.
