Sauvignon, Friuli, DOC
Ronco dei Pini
Ronco dei Pini’s 35 acres of vineyards are located in the rolling hills of Friuli in the north-eastern part of Italy within sight of the Slovenian border. The winery lies nestled in the hills between Prepotto and Spessa di Cividale, with grapes grown in the DOC area of Collio Goriziano. Ronco dei Pini is owned by Claudio and Giuseppe Novello, who took it over in 1997.
Bright yellow in color, it has an elegant bouquet, characterized by herbal notes and a hint of pepper. The wine is dry and delicate, with nicely balanced acidity
