| When
in 1975 we planted Sauvignon
Blanc grape variety in Castelluccio, we thought
of producing a great white wine that would follow
the same wine making techniques, and hence maturation,
as a red wine, so to develop those same complexities
and characteristics Castelluccio
ground and Ronco del Re micro-climate do show when
meeting with Sauvignon Blanc. |
| Ronco del Re is
the wine that has brought Castelluccio prestige
and pride, conquering top international acknowledgements
since the 80s. |
| A
“gem” that – in all its complexity
- expresses the terroir of the
vineyard from which its name originates. Thick
and gaudy in its yellow guise, it has mineral notes
and very refined fragrances, between fruit and oak. |

organoleptical
characteristics |
Colour: intense
yellow with golden reflections. Bouquet: complex in which the fruit combines with a hint of
tertiary evolution, where candied and exotic fruits prevail. Taste: similar to the bouquet,
highly structured but well balanced, with an unusual long-lasting
after-taste. |
matching food |
It’s a well suited wine for seafood,
roasted and sauced shrimps and lobsters, cold and warm duck
liver based dishes, aged and flavoured cheeses. |
