Sauvignon "Ronco delle Mele" DOC Venica

“Ronco delle Mele” is one of the most prestigious labels of Venica winery. It will be able to astonish you with its freshness and it will seduce you with its minerality. A white wine worked in Slavonian oak barrels and in steel that is worth of all the recognitions received by the critics year after year. A traditional wine that make everybody fall in love with its intense aromaticity and its irresistible tasting evolution. It is produced with 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes coming from a vineyard with south-west orientation, that allows a slow and correct maturation that preserves the characteristics of the variety. The maceration of the pressed grapes lasts for at least 24 hours at a controlled temperature of 11°C.  It is managed in specific containers protected by oxygen through the recycling of its fermentation CO2, to reduce the quantity of antioxidants. 20% of the must then ferments and ages on its yeasts for 5 months in big barrels (20 HL), the other 20% in steel.
