The elegant white wines of Collio are some of our absolute favorites! Most famous by Pinot Grigio, this Northern Italian wine region produces a number of other aromatic whites with structure and great complexity. Such is the case for Roberta Borghese's Ronchi di Manzano 2020, a pure Sauvignon Blanc grown in limestone soils on near-vertical slopes, characterized by gorgeous exotic fruit and abundant minerality. Elegance and quality are the characteristics that distinguish Borghese's whites, floral and feminine, never excessive, and always balanced. There is a richness that you seldom see outside of California, yet it retains the acidity and crispness Sauvignon Blanc is known for. If you love Italian whites and Sauvignon Blanc, this one is a big winner!
"Lemon pith, dried herbs, juniper berries and flint on the nose. Some salted limes. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity. Textured and focused. Serious sauvignon. Drink now or hold." James Suckling, 92 Points
