Probably the most interesting of native grapes of the North East. So many excellent versions are produced that it is difficult to single out producers.
Tocai has a light yellow-gold colour, a bouquet of ripe fruit and a soft, silky presence in the mouth. It is clearly a variety of high quality and deserves wider recognition and planting.
It is fairly versatile, performing well in the plainland of Grave del Friuli. Castello di Arcano Tocai exhibits a fruity and floreal aroma with a typical hint reminiscent of bitter almonds. It has a dry, velvety flavour with a moderate level of acidity. Good acconpaniment to fresh cheese, prosciutto, and white meats.
Served at a temperature of 10-12ºC
