Questo vino
Vineyard and terroir
The fruit comes from Tenuta RoncAlto at Ruttars in the municipality of Dolegna del Collio. The vines grow in marl-and-clay soils at a density of 8,000 plants per hectare and are trained to Guyot.
Grapes
100% Ribolla Gialla.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested entirely by hand into crates. They undergo an eight-hour cold maceration in a horizontal press, after which the must is clarified by settling. Fermentation takes place entirely in stainless-steel vessels at a controlled temperature of 16°C.
Ageing
After fermentation, the wine remains without racking in the same stainless-steel vessels for approximately eight months at a constant temperature. Final blending and bottling follow, with an additional period of bottle ageing before release.
Tasting profile
Straw yellow in colour, with floral and fruit-led aromas. The palate is dry, fresh, elegant and enveloping.
Serving and pairing
Serve at 12–13°C. Pair with fish-based starters, mildly seasoned cured meats, fish first courses, squid-ink risotto, and roasted fish with delicate flavours. Ageing potential is 6–8 years.
