The 'ponca' has low fertility and a good capacity to retain water, giving the grapes and wine unique characteristics such as body and colour, tannins and minerality. The arrangement of the vineyards in terraces, the Ronchi (hilltops) and the perfect exposure allow the grapes to ripen fully. Ventilation is good thanks to the Bora wind and winds from the Adriatic Sea; the significant temperature range between day and night makes the grapes more aromatic and sugary.Vinification: The grapes are processed in the press with soft pressing. Vinification takes place in white to remove the strong copper component typical of Pinot Grigio, immediately separating the skins from the must, in temperature-controlled steel tanks. Afterwards, the wine remains on the noble lees for about six months in steel vats and then rests in the bottle for the following two months.Tasting: The colour is straw yellow, with golden highlights. The nose begins with pronounced floral scents that then veer towards fruitiness, in particular apple and ripe pear. On the palate it is soft and enveloping and expertly doses a good body with a pleasantly acidic ribbing, which lends freshness to the drink. Balanced in every component, it has a good persistence.Combinations: Suitable on white meats, tasty fish and fish-based first courses. Perfect with cured meats. To be enjoyed at 12-14° C.
