The current release 2019s from Borgo del Tiglio were very exciting to taste. This was a vintage of ups and downs with a warm and dry winter, a cool and rainy spring and a hot summer. However, the climate cooperated with growers through late August and into harvest with strong diurnal shifts and cooler temperatures that brought balance. The result is a set of young wines with more textural richness and vivid fruit than you usually expect at this early stage, yet they don’t come across as warm-vintage wines. Instead there’s a harmony of fruit, acids and minerals that will promise many years of positive development. I tasted the 2019 Studio di Bianco from two separate bottles, one of which was opened the previous day and showed no sign of decline. Only in the case of the 2019 Ronco della Chiesa, a varietal Friulano, did I find some confectionary tones. Granted, the Brazzano cru that informs the Ronco della Chiesa surrounds the winery itself and is known to be the warmest location Borgo del Tiglio sources from, whereas the Collio Bianco and the single-vineyard Studio di Bianco come from a cooler location further into the hills near the small village of Ruttars.

Sometimes it takes an outsider to fully recognize the potential of a region. Proprietor Nicola Manferrari, who is originally from Emilia-Romagna, is one of the most fervent believers in the potential of the Collio, and also one of the handful of growers who consistently captures that potential. A few months ago I had the privilege to attend the most extensive tasting of older vintages ever held at the property. Those verticals, along with additional historical context on Borgo del Tiglio, are available here.

My wife and I sat down for a late summer dinner at L'Androna, the best restaurant in Grado, a gorgeous seaside town in Friuli. I had just returned the day before from two weeks in Burgundy, where I tasted just about every great 2009 white Burgundy, including virtually all of the benchmarks. Within that context, the next white I tasted should have been disappointing. Instead it was a revelation. The wine? Borgo del Tiglio's 2009 old-vine Friulano Ronco della Chiesa. On this night, the Ronco della Chiesa was every bit the equal of the vast majority of the wines I tasted in Burgundy, and frankly far better than the average. Proprietor Nicola Manferrari is one of the leading lights in Friuli. His wines deserve far more recognition than they typically receive. Make no mistake about it, these are some of the most compelling whites being made anywhere in Italy.
