Crafted by the renowned Collavini family, whose winemaking tradition stretches back to 1896, this wine is a true expression of the region's extraordinary terroir. The Collio hills, nestled between the Adriatic Sea and the Alps, enjoy a privileged micro-climate ideal for white grape varieties. Collavini embodies a harmonious blend of innovation and tradition, producing wines that showcase both authenticity and a modern edge. Thanks to its unique 'Ponca' soils rich in sandstone and marl, and the careful tending of vines trained by both cordon spur and Guyot methods, each bottle captures the refreshing minerality and aromatic vibrancy for which Collio is famed.
