Schioppettino di Cialla Colli Orientali del Friuli Doc
Ronchi di Cialla
The name Schioppettino comes from the characteristic of the berries that tend to burst in the mouth when eaten. There is also another hypothesis about the origin of the name, referring to the fact that some bottles exploded due to an unexpected second fermentation occurring inside them. Schioppettino was first described in the late 1800s, and in 1907 it was chosen to replant vineyards devastated by phylloxera. This vine grows almost exclusively in Friuli; in Prepotto it is very present and, according to some documents, in 1300 it accounted for more than 75% of local viticulture. It is characterized by a large cluster with deep-colored round berries, is not particularly hardy and is sensitive to rain and spring cold and susceptible to downy mildew.Read moreSold out
