History The name OLMÈRA derives from the location of the vineyard that produces the grapes for this wine. They are where there was once 'olmèra', which in local terminology indicates a wood of old elm trees. This area has always been considered of particular value for viticulture, as it has soil that naturally gives body and richness to the wines it generates.
Origin Le Ronche estate, Town of Fossalta di Piave (Venice).
Climate Mild, with medium-low rainfalls and summer temperatures that allow excellent grape ripening.
Soil composition Alluvial origin, composed of white clay and dolomitic rock sediments.
Cultivation system Guyot.
No. plants per hectare 8,400.
Harvest Early to mid-September, with early ripening of the grapes to increase their concentration and aromatic qualities.
Vinification Grapes are destemmed and crushed, followed by soft pressing. The Friulano is dried for 1 month with the development of noble rot in the grapes. The Sauvignon grapes are not dried.
Ageing The Friulano ferments and matures in barriques on all its lees, while the Sauvignon ferments and matures in cement tanks on all its lees. On both wines, the yeasts are periodically suspended through frequent stirring to increase the wine's thickness and harmony.
Production year 5,792 bottles
Allergens Contains sulphites
Pairing Ideal with risottos, shellfish and seafood.
