Made exclusively from grapes of a native vine, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso.

 

Classification: Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso DOC Friuli Colli Orientali.
Grapes: 100% Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso.
Soil and vineyard: marly soil of Eocene origin.

The vineyard is planted with 4.200 single Guyot- trained vines per hectare.
Vinification: after a late harvest, part of the grapes are carefully raisined for about 8 weeks. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks. The grapes, previously destemmed but not crushed, macerate from 25 to 30 days at controlled temperature. The wine is then transferred to new and once-used barriques for maturation with rackings every 90-100 days. For at least 24 months La Roncaia Refosco
ages slowly in wood. After assembling the cuvèe, the wine is bottled and ages in horizontal position for 6 months.

Appearance: deep garnet red with ruby glints. 

Nose: intense, complex, with earth scents recalling wild essences and wild berries, spicy and toasted fragrances, up to ethereal perfumes.
Palate: warm, velvety, tannic; a wine with a great body, intensity and tasting persistence.
Alcohol: 14.5% vol*

(* Depending on the year, the analytical values may vary slightly)

Ideal serving temperature: 18-20 ̊C.
Pairings: game or grilled meat.
