| Tenuta RoncAlto | www.livon.it |   Roncalto is a tiny estate owned by Az. Ag. Livon. It is specialized for the production of two highly selective varietals, Cabernet Franc and Ribolla Gialla, that are perfectly matched with the soil and climatic conditions of Collio. Already having achieved a great reputation, Tonino and Valneo Livon continue to strive for the highest quality wine. After observations and studies throughout Italy, Germany, France and the United States, combined with studies at the University of Udine, they decided to completely alter part of the vineyards their father had created. As you can imagine, people thought they were crazy. Years of testing were required to determine the effects of different soils, elevations, pruning techniques and a multitude of variables on the grapes and ultimately on the wine. Ancient traditions were not forgotten, as they were used to determine the clones of varietals to be used. They went so far as to even reintroduce indigenous vegetation, long gone, next to the vineyards. The result is a line of wines which are of excellent quality and structure. |
