Friuli DOC Sauvignon Blanc 2025 Ronco del Frassino

What kind of wine it is

The Sauvignon Blanc from Ronco del Frassino is a white wine from the Friuli denomination, straw yellow in color with greenish highlights, with a fresh, saline palate and excellent length.

Where it comes from

It comes from the terraced vineyards of the Ronco del Frassino estate, located on the hills of the Collio in Friuli Venezia Giulia; the so-called "ronchi", immersed in a wooded landscape with a strong presence of ash trees, from which the estate takes its name. The label is inspired by the Tyto alba, the barn owl that finds shelter in the hollows of centuries-old ash trees and uses their branches as perches during its nocturnal forays.

How it is made

The Sauvignon grapes are destemmed, crushed and subjected to a gentle pressing, followed by a brief maceration on the skins at controlled temperature. The must is then settled and filtered to achieve greater clarity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°C, followed by maturation, also in steel.

Tasting notes

In the glass it shows a straw yellow with greenish reflections. On the nose it reveals elegant herbaceous notes alongside hints of tropical fruit, peach and citrus. The palate is marked by pronounced freshness, notable salinity and excellent length.

Food pairing

It is the ideal wine to accompany asparagus and shellfish, herb-based pasta dishes or fresh goat cheeses.

When to serve it

With its marked freshness and pronounced salinity, serve well chilled, at 8-10°C: an ideal choice as an aperitif or to accompany fish and vegetable dishes.
