La Roncaia Picolit 2002 is a rare sweet wine from Friuli Colli Orientali, made from the prized, naturally low-yielding Picolit grape whose tiny crops give intense concentration. La Roncaia is renowned for meticulous appassimento and site expression, and this aged bottling is luxurious and opulent: acacia honey, dried apricot, candied orange peel, and hints of saffron and almond. Silky layers of apricot compote and honeyed citrus are kept lively by vibrant acidity, finishing long on orange blossom and a delicate mineral lift.
