Venica Ronco delle Mele Sauvignon 2025

Venica’s Ronco delle Mele is one of Collio’s benchmark Sauvignon Blancs, prized for its precision, aromatic depth, and unmistakable sense of place. Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, it captures the elegance of a region where winemaking knowledge has been passed down through generations.

Tasting Notes
Pale straw in the glass, it opens with an expressive and layered bouquet of honeysuckle, gooseberry, boxwood, blackcurrant leaf, and lime juice, gradually revealing riper fruit notes of pineapple, guava, and crisp apple. The finish turns distinctly mineral, adding tension and length to the wine’s aromatic profile. On the palate, it is vibrant and savory, with a crystalline freshness that gives the wine energy and definition. The finish is exceptionally long, echoing both the fruit and the herbal-mineral character of the nose. This is a Sauvignon Blanc with excellent aging potential, developing added nuance and complexity over time.

Production
The grapes come from Collio DOC, a hillside terroir in Friuli-Venezia Giulia known for its complex soils and ideal conditions for aromatic white wines. After about 20 hours of skin maceration at 11–12°C in oxygen-protected tanks, 20% of the must ferments and ages on the lees for six months in large oak casks, while the rest is vinified in stainless steel. The final blend is bottled under the full moon between late March and May.

Food & Serving
A superb match for grilled fish, shellfish, sushi, asparagus, herb-driven dishes, and light poultry preparations. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C; decanting is generally not necessary, but a short opening in the glass can help the aromas fully unfold.
