Friulano - Indigenous Italian Grape

from Sip & Grow The Podcast · host Nicole Di Pasquale

Today I try an indigenous grape from Italy called Friulano.  It is most similar to a Sauvignon Blanc but tends to be more full bodied and has less acidity than a Sauvignon Blanc. The Terlato family is very well know in the industry and I go over their history and growth which has ultimately led them to creating an empire within the wine and spirits industry.   Robert Mondavi comes up because he was actually very close friends with the Terlato family. It's overall very impressive what this family has built. Tune in now as I try this grape varietal for the first time and give you my insight if it's worth the buy.   1:11 - Liquor Land II 1:45 - Introduction to today's wine 2:15 - Northeastern Italy 2:25 - Friulano, indigenous grape 4:20 - Terlato humble beginnings  5:00 - Robert Mondavi 6:40 - Importing fine wines 8:08 - High yield grape 10:05 - Malolactic fermentation 11:25 - Olfactory analysis 12:11 - Tasting notes 14:00 - Best price at Liquor Land II 14:45 - Rating of the wine     Today's wine: Terlato Vineyards Friulano 2018 $16 GET WINE HERE    Connect with me on IG @sipandgrowpodcast   Get your FREE Wine Aroma Wheel at https://stan.store/nicoledipasquale    Check out my Italian Wine Guide at https://stan.store/nicoledipasquale
