This Ermacora 2008 Refosco (from K&L wine merchants) was a much needed treat last week. Ermacora was one of the standout producers from the Tocai tasting on the COF2011 trip, so I gave their Refosco a try here in the states. This was such a food friendly red, and can really go swell with a number of dishes. Both bright and dark fruits, very balanced in it's alcohol and a beautiful acidity. The tannins were not overwhelming and it went fine with pasta and a tomato eggplant sauce.
