2021 Jackot, Bodegas Piedra Negra, Arroyo Grande, Uco Valley

Friulano

The Jackot from Bodegas Piedra is made with the northern Italian grape variety Friulano.  This delicate white has aromas of herb tinged fresh Lime on the nose and a gentle palate which has a lovely creamy texture with whiffs of oak on the finish.  The hand harvested fruit is fermented at a cool 14 - 17 degrees in a mixture of stainless steel (70%) and old oak barrels (30%).  Following fermentation the wine is aged on fine lees in concrete eggs for 3 months with weekly batonnage (stirring) to give the wine added texture, prior to a further 6 - 8 months in old oak prior to release.
