Wine making

Harvest at the end of October. Crushing the grapes at low pressure. Fermentation in French barrels for 12 months, a very long duration, allowed by the low temperatures this season (below 20°), requiring no artificial cooling or the use of selected yeasts. Aging in stainless steel vats, then in bottle. Residual sugars: around 85 gr./liter.

Terroir :

Ramandolo is a small town that is home to the last vineyards before the mountains that separate Italy from Austria and Slovenia. The vineyards, which face south at an altitude of 350 metres, are protected from the north winds by Mount Bernadia. The marly soil gives Ramandolo its beautiful structure.

People

DRI IL RONCAT

Dri Il Roncat

Giovanni Dri is (re) known as a great gentleman of Friulan wine. In particular, he contributed to the promotion outside the borders of the rare and delicate Picolit grape variety, as well as the Ramandolo DOCG appellation, produced from the local Verduzzo grape variety. His father had sacrificed himself for him to attend school and find a stable job. But when he died in 1968, the call of the vine was irresistible and Giovanni took over the family farm.

On the 10 hectares of land, the “pocket handkerchief,” as he calls it, the last piece of vine before the mountains that separate Italy from Austria and Slovenia, he is now backed by Stefania, an oenologist of formation and who has inherited its hardened character.
