Ronc Plâtat Rosso DOC 2022

Elegant power with finesse

This Rosso DOC Friuli Colli Orientali 2022 is a beautiful expression of the region's classic red wine style.

The wine is a harmonious blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, and 10% Cabernet Franc, Schioppettino, and Carmenère, offering a full-bodied and balanced wine with character and depth.

The aroma greets you with warm spices like cinnamon and clove that meld with dark berries and subtle oak notes.

The taste is rich and intense, featuring juicy nuances of wild berries complemented by spicy elements from barrel aging. A muscular yet elegant wine with fine acidity and well-integrated tannins.

The grapes come from vineyards with the characteristic "Ponca" soil, a mix of marl and sandstone, which imparts minerality and complexity to the wine. The vines are trellised using the Guyot system, and yields are kept low at 30 quintals per hectare, ensuring high concentration in the grapes.

Vinification follows a classic approach with full destemming and a 20-day maceration for maximum extraction of color and aroma. After fermentation, the wine ages for 20 months in French barriques, 30% of which are new, adding structure and depth without overpowering the natural fruit expression.

A wine that can be enjoyed now but will also develop beautifully over the coming years.

Perfect with braised meat dishes, game, or mature cheeses. Serve at 16-18°C for the best experience.
