Description
The Collio terroir is a natural gift of mineral flavours and longevity for the vines from these hills, which can express themselves best even after many years of ageing. The Primosic Riserva, from Klin to the Metamorfosis red to Picolit, know how to wait for the right moment to get the best out of themselves. Ribolla di Oslavia is a synthesis of a variety born in the land of Oslavia.

| Plants per hectare | 4,800 - 8,000. |
| Yield per hectare | 5,500 kg/hectare. |
| Harvest | By hand, with crates when grapes are fully ripe. |
| Wine making | The grapes are destemmed and crushed. The first must is then separated from the press must and put into small wooden barrels of 500-600 litres, where fermentation begins with indigenous yeasts. The tumultuous fermentation phase lasts around 15-20 days until malolactic fermentation is almost complete. The temperature of the small barrels does not rise above 26-28Ā°C. The wine is then transferred, and the Ribolla Gialla part is added to the bulk. |
