2022 Ronco del Gelso Sauvignon "Sottomonte" 0,75lt.
Sauvignon is a difficult grape variety to grow and make into wine, which makes it highly satisfying for good producers.
The vineyards are located in Cormons at the foot of the hill, where the soil is deeper and siltier, retaining moisture better.
The wine is soft, full and balanced, despite its high acidity and alcohol content, and has the delicate aromatic notes typical of the variety.
It is aged on the lees in 2,500-litre oval barrels and bottled in the autumn following the harvest.
It is a linear but Mediterranean wine, with unusually good development, in which the palate maintains what the nose promises, displaying good balance and elegance.Our vineyards are situated on the small plain created by the tributaries of the Isonzo, which extends from the hills of the Collio region towards the Adriatic Sea.
The poor, stony, dry soils are ideal for viticulture.
Indeed, poor soils are very important to limit the vigour of the vines and prevent excessive production.
Our vineyard strategies have always respected the distinctive nature of the soil, whose low fertility makes them perfect for high-quality viticulture.
Our vineyards are all single-Guyot pruned and vertical-trellis trained, with a high vine density to promote root competition and canopy restriction.
During planting, great attention is paid to the selection of clones and rootstocks, which must be suited to our soils. Green cover is planted in alternating rows.
The wines vary according to the grape varieties and average yields are around 1–1.5 kg per vine.
