The 2005 Verduzzo Friulano Cratis is absolutely delicious dessert wine full of character in its dried figs, spices, flowers and honey. This medium-bodied wine shows lovely richness and balance, while avoiding a cloying level of sweetness. It is a great wine to pair with cheeses. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011. Once again I was impressed with the wines I tasted from Roberto Scubla, a small producer located in the Colli Orientali district of Friuli. Importer: Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY; tel.
