Vinous

The 2019 Friulano Skin is a deep golden color in the glass. A blend of dried flowers, cardamom and raw honey forms its bouquet. It’s weighty yet amazingly fresh on the palate, with vibrant acidity enlivening its kaleidoscopic mix of tropical inner florals, green melon and gingery spice. This finishes with a sweet and sour tension, curling the lips while also keeping the mouth watering for more as kiwi and liquid stone notes fade. There is so much character and so much to like about the Friulano Skin, with an energy that is often lost in skin-contact wines.

James Suckling

Amber-colored with aromas of baked apples, chamomile and dried figs. Medium-bodied with a tight vein of tangy fruit and saline minerals that give a long finish with a tinge of hot nougat at the end. Drink now.

Notes

The Primosic "Skin" Collio Friulano Orange Wine is an innovative expression of Friulano, crafted using extended skin contact, resulting in an orange wine. This process gives the wine a deeper color, more texture, and complex aromas of dried apricots, orange peel, and spices, along with earthy and herbal undertones. The wine showcases a balance of vibrant acidity, tannic structure, and rich flavors, making it both refreshing and suitable for aging. Primosic's commitment to tradition and experimentation reflects the potential of Collio for crafting distinctive orange wines.
