Tried the other two new Rodaro wines:
1. Rodaro Friulano Dd'OP: Friuli Colli Orientali (13.5%; www.RodaroPaolo.It; BotiqueWineCollection/Philadelphia) Rodano Paolo/Cividale del Friuli/Italy 2020: Pale gold color; fairly strong floral/carnations/Friulano/grapey some earthy/chalky bit dandelions quite fragrant nose; rather tart/tangy/slight metallic strong floral/carnations/grapey/dandelions light earthy/chalky/stony some tangy/metallic bit simple pleasant Friulano flavor; long fairly strong grapey/Friulano/carnationslight stony/chalky finish; a quite pleasant expression of Friulano but just that; a bit on the simple side. $25.00 (SFW&S)

More pedobrickle from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. These two didn't quite measure up to the level of the Malvasia or Schioppettino that I had a few days earlier.
