Tunella "L'Arcione" blends two native Friulian grape varieties, Pignolo and Schioppettino. The vineyards stretch across the hills of the Colli Orientali, with a climate that enjoys the position of the Julian Alps, sheltering from cold winds and the Adriatic Sea mitigating. The soil consists of marl and sandstone, the so-called "ponca." Harvesting takes place in the first week of October, and the grapes are placed in special boxes for a short drying period. They are then crushed, separated, fermented with maceration on the skins, and passed into French oak tonneaux. It is aged for as many as 4 years in the same barrels, then blended and bottled.

Its ruby red with garnet highlights makes us dive already with our eyes into the intensity of the olfactory bouquet that follows. Immediately one denotes power and intensity between fruits and spices and tertiary hints, such as leather and liquorice, on a penetrating balsamic carpet and a smoky finish. Next, it traces its decision in the mouth with deep tannins but an unexpected softness. For those who want to try something special, L'Arcione may be the right choice. Two indigenous Friulian grape varieties, Pignolo and Schioppettino, are woven together, resulting in a wine with depth, structure and a fine breadth of aromas.
