Known for its red-stemmed bunches and naturally vibrant character, Refosco delivers a refreshing alternative to more familiar international varieties, combining dark fruit, spice and lively acidity. The 2021 vintage offers an appealing balance of youthful energy and regional authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, the wine displays a deep ruby-red colour with violet reflections. The nose is expressive, revealing aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry and plum alongside floral nuances, peppery spice and subtle earthy notes.\n\nOn the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with juicy dark-fruit flavours, fresh acidity and gently firm tannins that provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. A savoury, lightly herbal finish adds complexity. It is enjoyable in its youth, while careful cellaring over the next few years should allow the tannins and secondary notes to become more integrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes are grown in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, where the region’s cool climate and varied soils help preserve Refosco’s characteristic freshness and aromatic intensity. The fruit is harvested at optimum ripeness and vinified to retain the variety’s natural colour, fruit expression and lively acidity, with maturation designed to soften the structure while keeping the wine distinctly regional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at around 16–18°C, allowing the wine to open gradually in the glass. It pairs particularly well with grilled sausages, roast pork, braised meats, game, mushroom dishes and hearty pasta with tomato or ragù sauces. Decanting is not essential for the 2021 vintage, but 20–30 minutes in a decanter can help reveal its fruit and savoury aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1955, Primosic is a respected family-run winery in Oslavje, in the Collio area of Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
