An intense, bright straw colour with a slight nuance of antique pink. A fine, enveloping wine with intense floral notes, presenting hints of acacia flowers and hawthorn, which in
our hills are enveloped by touches of white and yellow fruit such as pear and peach, followed by a fresh minerality and a light citrus note. On the palate, it is very complex and particularly harmonious, with hints of pear and white peach for a persistent and very elegant 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: Excellent for a pre-dinner drink but particularly suited to pairings with seafood dishes, from soups to grilled fish, or even porcini mushroom risottos.
Maturation: Maturation continues for a few months on the lees in steel fermentation vats until reaching the complexity, creaminess and suitability for ageing. Bottling then takes place in February.
