Borgo del Tiglio Collio Rosso Riserva is a red blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from Collio in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy. The 2021 shows red and blue fruits with some savory notes. It has good ageing potential, yet it is still strong out of the bottle after a couple of years.
Nicola Manferrari trained in pharmacology, a choice that came more from family tradition than passion. When his father died in 1981, he took over the family's 5 hectares, 3 of them planted with vines, and found his calling. He worked by instinct, and was the first in Friuli to use bilateral Guyot pruning, only to learn it was common in the Loire. He taught himself French to read viticulture texts such as F. Champagnol's 'Phisiologie de la Vigne'. With his background in chemistry and biology, he lets his palate guide the wines.
