Friulano Ronco delle Cime, Venica & Venica

FRIULANO RONCO DELLE CIME

D.O.C. Collio

Ronco delle Cime means peaks; it comes from a selection of the highest vineyard in the property (300-400 meters), the eldest vines (50 years old) and the best mature grapes selected visually by hand

Grape Variety

100% Tocai Friulano, not to be confuse with Hungarian Tocai or the Tokay d'Alsace

Vineyard

Cime, Bernizza

Alcohol

13,5%

Total Acidity

5,1 g/l

Serving Temperature

10° - 12° C (50° F)

Vinification
grapes are macerated for 12 hours at low temperature and pressed under CO2 that prevent oxidations. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and lasting for 7-10 days. Aging in the bottle is an important factor for the improvement of the wine for the next five years. "Batonage" once a week for two months improves the body

Tasting notes

Typical aromas reminiscent of fresh almonds, walnuts, candy and clovers. The taste has a velvet soft texture due to its inherent low acidity with flavors that reminds quince, curry and bitter almonds

Suggestions with typical “Furlan” menus

Asparagus soup, prosciutto crudo and risotto with mushrooms (the most easy to find is usually the porcini one)
