The Ronco del Gelso Estate is a magnificent vineyard situated in the Friuli Isonzo wine region in northeastern Italy. Renowned for its exceptional white wines, this estate is a true gem nestled between the mountains and the Adriatic Sea. The estate takes its name from the presence of an old mulberry tree (or 'gelso' in Italian). This very tree adorns the labels of the wine bottles produced by the estate, symbolizing its commitment to staying true to its roots and the importance it places on tradition and nature. The Ronco del Gelso Estate has been operated by the Gallo family since the 1970s. However, it wasn't until 1995 that the current owner, Giorgio Badin, decided to make the leap and become a full-time winemaker. Giorgio's passion for viticulture and oenology is reflected in each bottle produced by the estate. Covering an area of nearly 20 hectares, the estate grows several grape varieties, including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio, as well as some native varieties such as Friulano and Ribolla Gialla. The estate is famous for its expressive wines, characterized by great finesse, freshness and surprising minerality, thanks to the unique terroir of the region. Leaning towards a production of quality rather than quantity, the Ronco del Gelso Estate strives to respect the harmony between the vine and the environment. The domain is committed to a sustainable viticulture approach, minimizing the use of chemicals and promoting the natural balance of the vine. Visiting the Ronco del Gelso Estate means discovering not only the region's award-winning wines, but also the centuries-old traditions of Friuli viticulture.

Discover the grape variety: Pinot grigio

Pinot grigio is a grey grape variety mutated from Pinot Noir. It has its origins in Burgundy, where it is called pinot-beurot in reference to the colour of the grey robes worn by the monks of the region. Established in Alsace since the 17th century, pinot grigio was called tokay until 2007. It is made up of bunches of small berries that vary in colour from pink to blue-grey. It is particularly well suited to the continental climate because it is resistant to the cold in winter and to spring frosts. This variety also likes dry limestone soils with plenty of sunshine in the summer. pinot grigio is well suited to late harvesting or to the selection of noble grapes, depending on the year and the concentration of sugars in the berries. Pinot grigio wines are distinguished by their aromatic complexity of white fruits, mushrooms, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, etc., and their great finesse. In the Loire Valley, pinot grigio is used in the Coteaux-d'Ancenis appellations. It gives dry or sweet wines with pear and peach aromas.
