(TheGlobeandMail) - The Stanislao Radikon Oslavje 2005 we are about to taste isn’t red, white or pink. This wine is orange – a hazy, golden amber, to be more precise, with sweet aromas of baked apple, melon and apricot pit. Blended from ribolla gialla, sauvignon blanc and chardonnay grapes, the iconoclastic Friuli is actually a white wine. But whereas most white wines are quickly squeezed out of their skins, this eccentric Italian juice was macerated with its peels (like red wine) for three months, and aged for four years in Slovenian oak barrels without temperature control, added yeasts or sulphites, or other human tinkering.
