Lemon yellow with silver reflections. In the fragrance meadow herbs, lemon and mandarin peel. In the drink juicy, precise and wonderfully dry, the vibrating acidity animates and refreshes. In the further course complex and with very beautiful fruit, in the solid final again this impressive freshness, paired with a fine saltiness. SUPERIORE.DE

“Serena Palazzolo e Figli” Sauvignon Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2018
Aristocratic Sauvignon Bianco with a complex bouquet of gooseberries and citrus notes, along with mineral notes and a hint of grass. A white wine with excellent varietal character, remarkable density and depth and surprisingly inexpensive and long-lasting for its class. SUPERIORE.DE
"Luminous straw-green. At once ripe and juicy, with vibrant acidity lifting the very ripe tropical fruit aromas and flavors. Closes smoky and long with noteworthy high acidity and a likeable austere finish that is very typical of the Rosazzo area (where the estate is located)." Vinous

“Serena Palazzolo e Figli” Sauvignon Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2020
Aristocratic Sauvignon Bianco with a complex bouquet of gooseberries and citrus notes, plus mineral notes and a hint of grass. A white with excellent varietal character, remarkable density and depth, and surprisingly good value and longevity for its class. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2020 Sauvignon Blanc Serena Palazzolo e Figli is very easy to like. Both spicy and intense, with smoky crushed stone giving way to musky peach and hints of confectionery spice. This washes across the palate, with round yet juicy textures delivering ripe orchard fruits and hints of candied lime. Its stimulating minerality and sour citrus add poise, yet not so much to slow its momentum, as the 2020 finishes long and wickedly fresh. This would make a great gateway wine for lovers of Sauvignon looking to explore Friuli. The Serena Palazzolo e Figli is a blend of fruit from throughout the Ronco del Gnemiz vineyards. Its minerality and sour citrus character keep the experience engaging to say the least." Vinous

“Iris Serena Palazzolo e Figli” Sauvignon Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
For the first time, the popular Sauvignon Bianco Serena Palazzolo gets a rival with the addition "Iris". The grapes come from other vineyards and Christian Patat decided to vinify them separately. Iris presents itself more delicate and reserved in its style, even though it gives off an equally beautiful overall picture. Bright straw green, in the bouquet hints of apricots, lime zest and a subtle tropical vein. Wonderful fruit-acid play on the palate, not quite as wild as its counterpart, but just as mineral and tension-loaded. A skilful example of why it is sometimes good to vinify different terroirs separately and bring out the characteristics skilfully. Great Sauvignon cinema from a master hand! SUPERIORE.DE

“Iris” Sauvignon Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2020
Iris presents itself in a delicate and restrained style. Bright straw green, on the nose hints of apricots, lime zest and a subtle tropical vein. Wonderful fruit-acid interplay on the palate, not quite as wild as its counterpart, but just as mineral and tension-filled. A skilful example of why it is sometimes good to vinify different terroirs separately and skilfully bring out the characteristics. Great Sauvignon cinema from a master hand! SUPERIORE.DE
"There’s a candied quality to the bouquet of the 2020 Sauvignon Blanc Iris, which is perfectly counterbalanced by grounding notes of wet stone and freshly sliced pear. This is soft in texture, with pleasantly ripe peach flavors and inner florals that form toward the close. It tapers off a bit shorter than anticipated yet it leaves the palate nicely refreshed. Very pretty." Vinous

“San Zuan” Friulano Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
San Zuan is an attractive, well-proportioned white made from 100% Friulano grapes. Complex bouquet of white peaches and pears, flowers and a subtle earthiness. Full and round on the palate, yet elegant, with some minerality, great length and nice aging potential. SUPERIORE.DE
"A bouquet showing young mango, nectarine and dusty yellow florals creates an elegant introduction to the 2019 Friulano San Zuan. This gains in richness and savory depths with time in the glass. It’s silky, weighty yet poised, with sour citrus opening the experience, giving way to white orchard fruits, as masses of stony minerality collect toward the close. That said, there’s a sensation of opulence here, even as the San Zuan tapers off with mouthwatering salty tension. The 2019 could use another year to fully come together; but once it does, it should be absolutely irresistible. The San Zuan is produced from three separate parcels of old vines (sixty years and older) within the estate vineyards." Vinous

Schioppettino Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
Light ruby in colour, cherry-fruity and with a lot of character of its own. The red variety, also called Ribolla Nera, has been interpreted by Ronco del Gnemiz with great character. It presents itself soft, delicate, juicy, fruity and wonderfully precise and long. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Schioppettino is remarkably pretty and floral, with violets and roses complementing its wild red berries and hints of smoke. This is soft-textured and lifted in feel, yet also packed full of fleshy raspberry fruit, as exotic spices build within. It leaves a tinge of sour citrus while finishing lightly structured and with a staining like liquid lavender. Lovers of Schioppettino will fall head over heels for the 2019." Vinous

“Lozeta” Sauvignon Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
New in the single-varietal portfolio of the top winery is the single-vineyard Sauvignon from the Lo Lozeta vineyard of the same name, which has finally seen the light of day after years of experimentation. It is the result of the avant-garde planting system, which, in contrast to the method of cultivation previously practiced in Friuli, means not only a higher planting density, but also the intelligent use of clones and biotypes intermarried with French offshoots. It is another uncompromising and consistent step towards complexity and personality, with optimal exploitation and expression of the existing terroir and microclimate.
It was only with this 2019 vintage that the wine found the balance and complexity that allowed Christian Patat to present it to the public in a very small edition alongside the famous classics Peri, Sol, and Salici. One cannot only be excited about this result and this interpretation of Sauvignon Bianco, which is immensely full of character, but as a vintner, one has to be unreservedly proud of it! SUPERIORE.DE
"Crushed stone, candied lemon peels, green apple and dusty dried flowers all rise up effortlessly from the 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Lozeta. It’s silky-smooth, almost oily in feel, yet there’s an energy and precision within that excites the senses as saline-minerals add tension over a dense core of ripe stone fruits. The cheeks pucker with youthful tension as tart citrus and inner florals linger long. The 2019 Lozeta could use a year or two of cellaring to reveal all of its charms." Vinous

“Ronco Basso” Chardonnay Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2020
The single-varietal Chardonnay Ronco Basso perfectly embodies the style of the house and its terroir. The grapes come from a small parcel in the Rosazzo hills. A lively but deep bouquet of fine straw and smoky notes and exotic fruits, plus a delicate creamy vein. Elegant and harmonious on the palate with a pleasantly citrusy and mineral finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2020 Chardonnay Ronco Basso is youthfully backward today, with crushed almonds giving way to pretty hints of young peach and dusty florals. Its silken textures coat the palate in ripe apple and pear complemented by hints of sweet almond. The finish is long, stained with confectionery spice and a gentle tug of minerality. The Ronco Basso impresses with its balance and elegance." Vinous

This is round and slightly opulent in feel, showcasing ripe orchard fruits and tantalizing citrus tones. It tapers off floral and precise with lasting lemony intensity.

"The 2015 Sauvignon Sol bristles with energy, tension and nuance. The interplay of green, grassy Sauvignon aromatics and the ripeness of the year results in a wonderfully complex wine that has a lot to offer.

"The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Sol is a bit more extroverted and fruit-focused than the Péri, but that’s not to say that it lacks at all in character and verve. Dried apricot, peach and vanilla bean gain further depths with a spritz of lime and hints of wild herbs. It’s soft, almost oily in texture, offset by notes of tart green apple, ginger and savory spice, creating an expression of contrasts. Hints of kiwi, sour melon and saline-mineral tones linger impressively long while residual acids slowly fizzle out. The Sol is sourced from a lower-elevation parcel in the estate vineyards, planted in rocky, calcareous soils." Vinous

Sol Chardonnay is an intellectual wine to which one should dedicate air, time and the necessary attention, and then one will be princely rewarded! SUPERIORE.DE
"Golden-tinged bright straw color. Intense mineral notes complement lemon, apple, orange and banana aromas and flavors. Finishes vibrant and long, with fresh lemon and custard cream notes. The Sol is made from 64 year old vines and is usually one of Italy’s best Chardonnays." Vinous

“Buri Bellaria” Friulano Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
The site near Buttrio, where the grapes of the autochthonous grape variety Friulano (formerly Tocai) come from, belongs, together with Rosazzo, to the Grand Crus of the Friuli Colli Orientali appellation. Here, there are not only no regulations, but also a lean, loose marl soil, which provides for extremely small yields every year. In good vintages, however, one is rewarded all the more for it: The volume and fruit concentration, the lower acidity and the unmistakable saltiness of the wines will lead to pleasurable heights after a few years of bottle ripening, that it will make the lover of complex, energetic whites dizzy. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Friulano Buri Bellaria isn’t quite ready to reveal all of its charms, opening with an alluring yet understated bouquet of ripe pears, apples, hints of mulling spice and dusty florals. It’s an opulent and soothing expression, coasting across a medium-bodied frame with ripe orchard fruits and a hint of custard that comes forward toward the close. There’s a density here that masks a more structured expression beneath, with residual acids which maintain an energetic feel. You can certainly enjoy the 2019 now, but the best is yet to come. Give the 2019 a year or two of cellaring, and watch it shine. The Buri Bellaria hails a vineyard which is managed by the Palazzolo family in Buttrio, and it shows a fruitier and more exotic expression than the estate bottling." Vinous

It leaves the palate vibrating with tension and refreshed while closing with persistence, as a hint of almond paste lingers.

“Buri Bellaria” Rosso Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
Also from Bruttrio, like the Friulano Buri Bellaria, comes the almost single-vineyard top Merlot of the Palazzolo family. The vines of the vineyard, which was formerly cultivated by Miani, are almost 100 years old and regularly produce grapes of great complexity and very noble tannins, which, however, need at least two years of ageing and refinement before the wine is bottled unfiltered. Then, however, the wine begins a journey that could not be more exciting and fruitful. On the nose, we find violet flowers and lots of blue and black berries, rounded off by piquant herbs and spices. A remarkably silky, almost floating red that leads into a never-ending fusious final with fleshy berries, minerals and herbs. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Rosso Buri Bellaria entices with its classic bouquet of ripe blueberries and plums complemented by spicy wild herbs and tobacco leaf. This fleshes out across the palate, with mineral-tinged red and black fruits motivated by juicy acidity, as sweet spices form toward the close. It finishes with fine tannins that frame the expression well, while leaving a coating of concentration and inner violet flowers to fade. The 2019 Rosso Buri Bellaria is already so enjoyable, but it will benefit from another few years of cellaring." Vinous

Since it was taken over in 1964, the small, ecologically managed Ronco del Gnemiz winery, situated in a beautiful natural setting in the immediate vicinity of Udine, has been owned by the Palazzolo family. The current owners, Serena Palazzolo and her husband Christian Patat, produce consistently straightforward, distinctive, but strictly limited top-quality wines on the estate, which has only 6.5 hectares of vineyards and is divided into the San Giovanni al Natisone and Manzano zones. The range of products is often highly rated by wine critics and has helped the winery to achieve international recognition over the years.
The vineyards, which are cultivated by well-trained staff and are oriented towards the southwest, and the exemplary work in the cellar have been certified by the ERSA agency of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region for high ecological standards. In summer, the heat is tempered by a fresh sea breeze. This season is also characterized by considerable temperature variations between day and night. The spring usually proves to be humid and warm. In the mostly cold and low-precipitation winters, the Alps in the north offer protection to the vines. The growing area is often affected by heavy rainfall, which is made bearable by the north winds Bora in autumn and winter and the breezes Borina in late spring and summer. The soils consist mostly of clay and marl interspersed with calcium.
The grapes of the small winery located in the Colli Orientali del Friuli are aromatic and rich in flavor. They are treated as gently as possible to preserve their natural characteristics. This is how the cellar of Ronco del Gnemiz produces classic, elegant and long-lasting wines. The white grapes are gently pressed, insoluble components are cold-separated and fermentation takes place almost without exception (not malolactic) in wooden barrels. The red berries macerate in stainless steel vats. The best of their color also spend a long time in French oak barrels.
Serena Palazzolo and her team are not lovers of fashionable wines. Instead, they have been uncompromisingly improving their products for years and say about themselves: "Maybe we are a bit like our wines - strict but true". Especially in recent times, the quality of the estate's wines has been further enhanced, as can be seen, for example, in the Sauvignon Bianco Sol. But Ronco del Gnemiz has also long been one of the best wine houses in the north-east Italian region. SUPERIORE.DE
