Castelluccio Sauvignon Ronco del Re 2009
When in 1975 we planted Sauvignon Blanc grape variety in Castelluccio, we thought of producing a great white wine that would follow the same wine making techniques, and hence maturation, as a red wine, so to develop those same complexities and characteristics Castelluccio ground and Ronco del Re micro-climate do show when meeting with Sauvignon Blanc. Ronco del Re is the wine that has brought Castelluccio prestige and pride, conquering top international acknowledgements since the 80s. A “gem” that – in all its complexity - expresses the terroir of the vineyard from which its name originates. Thick and gaudy in its yellow guise, it has mineral notes and very refined fragrances, between fruit and oak.
