Livio Pesle continues an old family tradition of wine and liquor making. The wines utilized for the preparation of his products originates mainly from the grapes cultivated in the vineyards of his winery in the middle of the best cru of ColliOrientali del Friuli Cru Rosazzo.Hundreds of years ago another cured wine was very popular, similar to the Vinum Hyppocraticum (prepared with red wine and spices), Bishop or Bischof wine was made with aged white wine and citrus fruits.
Following the original recipe found in the archives of Livio's family, he has used Tocai Friuliano and added lemons, bitter orange, onion, ginger, horse radish, and dill. The moderately hot flavor complements Smoked Salmon and Lax.
It goes with all kind of smoked fish but is also a surprising elegant complement for Prosciutto Crudo, Speck and Bresaola.
