 Producer:
Kante
Region: Friuli-Venezia
Giulia
DOC(G):
Carso
About the Producer:
A resolute eccentric,
Edi Kante carved his spectacular state-of-the-art cellars out of
the mountainside of Friuli's Carso District twenty
years ago. With the zone's distinct limestone-rich soil Edi makes
bright, distinct wines which never fail to show as much individuality
as he
does.
Situated in the extreme southeast corner of Friuli, Carso produces
sugar-rich fruit in its warm, maritime climate. However, the brisk
sea breezes allow the grapes to retain superior acidity, making
these wines great accompaniments to the region's rich Slavic food. Although
he uses a lot of barrel fermentation, his wines finds a balance
of acidity, fruit, and wood flavors.
