An intense ruby red colour. Immediately very intense and elegant, fruity notes of wild berries and plum jam emerge and blend nicely with hints of black pepper.
A pleasant aftertaste of coffee and liquorice comes as a result of the maturation.
On the palate, it is vinous with great personality and good body, being expansive and persistent, which confirms the olfactory sensations in its finish.

Marls and sandstones of Eocene origin, called “ponca” in Italian, stratified under the seas over millennia and today give our wines a unique flavour and minerality typical of Collio.

Isidoro Polencic is a family business, now run by three siblings – Alex, Elisabetta and Michele – who carry on the work started by their parents Isidoro and Anna but before that, by their grandfather, also named Isidoro.    

Our family has long been here in Plessiva, in the heart of the Collio wine region. We have always traced the contours of the rows as we grow the vines with methodic and careful tenacity.

Pairing Suggestions: Roasts, shanks, cold meats, as well as being excellent with cured meats and aged cheese.

Maturation: After racking, there follows a long period of maturation and refinement where malolactic fermentation takes place and during which the often significant and lush tannins are pleasantly softened. After bottling, the wine rests for further ageing in the bottle before release.
