Malvasia IGT - Roncus

 The hectares of vineyards are clustered in small plots: crus with unique and specific microclimates and terroirs. This diversity enriches the wines and makes them an expression of the terroir. The marly soil lends minerality and flavor to the wines, while the ample and intense aromas reflect the grass-covered vineyards with spontaneous flora. Plantings—some on hillsides, others on plains—are surrounded by woodland and dotted with plants such as wild hops, butcher's broom, chives, and chamomile. The quality of the wines is created among these vineyards, with a few essential treatments using copper and sulfur. In the cellar, the finishing touches are made, careful not to damage the precious harvest, which is done by hand and only uses fully ripe grapes.

 The Winery: Our history is deeply rooted in the past (Roncùs is the ancient name for these low, wild, hilly lands), but our goals look directly to the future, with the sole aim of creating long-lived wines that fully express this terroir. Within the property, the hectares of vineyards are clustered into small plots: crus with unique and specific microclimates and terroirs, where the landscape changes gradually, enriching the wines and making them a genuine expression of the terroir. The marly soil lends minerality and flavor, while the diverse aromas reflect the grassy vineyards with spontaneous flora, including wild hops and butcher's broom, chives and chamomile. Among the vines, it is the older ones that best tell our story: we manage them all organically with minimal, essential treatments such as copper and sulfur. In the cellar, our work is done on tiptoe: it is a finishing touch and careful to enhance, without damaging, the precious harvest of the hand-picked, fully ripe grapes.
