2023 Venica & Venica "Ronco delle Cime" Friulano, Collio, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
From the highest hill, the Friulano Cru acquires intense aromas: Williams pear, yellow peach and delicate notes of herbs and wild flowers. Great structure on the palate. Warm and harmonious, with a pleasant savouriness and freshness. A full-bodied and enveloping wine with fruity and intense hints; it closes with the almondy taste typical of Friulano.
ABOUT THIS WINE
Ronco delle Cime translates to the "Hill of Peaks." It is Venica’s highest vineyard at 200 m above sea level, with a northwest orientation. Together with Ronco delle Mele they form the two crus of Venica & Venica. The vineyard was planted by Gianni and Giorgio Venica in 1999, who willed it to make a single vineyard expression with a vocation to the cultivation of Tocai friulano. The wine is aged on its lees for 6 months, partially in stainless and partially in 20-27 hectoliter botti.
