Produced in Oslavia, on the Friulian-Slovenian border, this sits among the estate’s most serious red wines: long, firm, savoury, and built around time rather than immediacy. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"420\" data-end=\"743\"\u003eThe 2014 spends around one month on the skins, followed by 5 years in used barrels and a minimum of 6 years in bottle before release. That long ageing is essential to soften Pignolo’s naturally firm tannic structure and bring out the wine’s darker, more evolved complexity. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"745\" data-end=\"1066\"\u003eIn the glass, it shows a deep ruby colour moving toward garnet. The nose is mature and brooding, with dark cherry, dried plum, leather, wild herbs, tobacco, earth, balsamic tones, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is structured and savoury, with firm but evolved tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, dark, earthy finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1068\" data-end=\"1261\"\u003eThis is not a soft or polished red. It is Radikon through Pignolo: austere, mature, textural, and deeply gastronomic, with the 500ml format making it feel even more concentrated and deliberate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1369\"\u003ePerfect with game, braised meats, aged cheeses, mushrooms, slow-cooked beef, lamb, and rich winter dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1371\" data-end=\"1406\"\u003eServe: 16–18 °C\u003cbr data-start=\"1386\" data-end=\"1389\"\u003eDrink: 2024–2038\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bricchi and Barrett","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47862556524695,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/2899\/5223\/files\/pignolinew.png?v=1780453588","url":"https:\/\/bricchiandbarrett.com.au\/products\/2014-radikon-pignoli-500ml","provider":"Bricchi and Barrett","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
