About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow in the rich, fertile soils along the Isonzo River.

Vinification

After harvest the grapes are destemmed and fermented by the Ganimede method. The length of fermentation varies with the quality of the grapes. When fermentation ends, the wine is drained from the vat and the remaining pomace is pressed.

Ageing

The wine matures first in stainless steel tanks, then moves to French oak barriques and tonneaux for further ageing before bottling.

Tasting profile

Delicate aroma and velvety palate, shaped significantly by the oak ageing. Elegant berry notes.

Serving and pairing

Pairs with roast partridge or refined meat-based soups.

Label / history

The "I Feudi di Romans" range grew out of respect, love and admiration for the life-giving power of the land. Its wines are elegant and known for their remarkable purity.
