Love Nebbiolo? Meet Its Friulian Cousin with a Wild Side: Pignolo. 🍇🍷
If you’re captivated by Nebbiolo’s haunting aromas, firm tannins, and age-worthy elegance, then you need to experience Pignolo — one of Friuli’s most powerful, under-the-radar native grapes.
As Ian D’Agata writes in Native Wine Grapes of Italy, Pignolo delivers “depth, structure, and brooding intensity” — like Nebbiolo’s darker, moodier sibling. Think:
🌹 Nebbiolo = Roses, tar, truffle, finesse
🌌 Pignolo = Dark fruit, spice, tannic punch, mystery
👀 Curious? Come taste it.
