This is a new one in the Radikon stable, a blend of Pignolo and Merlot that spend a few weeks on skins and eighteen months in old casks before release. This is a little more fruit-forward and friendly than their other reds, but retains the deeply savoury note that makes them stand out in the first place.
Radikon
Stanko Radikon was one of the natural wine world’s true icons and his legendary work in the Oslavia region of Friuli, right by the border with Slovenia in Italy’s northeast is now being carried on by his son Sasa. The wines benefit from what a soil type the Slovenian’s call ‘Ponca’, a complex mix of sandstone, clay and marine deposits that produces powerful, mineral rich wines. With long macerations and time ageing in old oak casks, they produce wines of rare intensity.
