Borgo del Tiglio Collio Friulano
Collio Ronco della Chiesa is a wine produced from around 12,000 square metres of vineyard right next to the hamlet where the company is located. Its aspect is south-east facing, and the fields overlook the sea which is separated from us by around twenty miles of coastal plain. This sheltered and fairly warm position, where in the summer warm onshore breezes gently blow, is ideal for growing Tocai in all its fullness of refinement and complexity. The soil is typical of the Collio, and the substrate, known as Cormòns Flysch, is made up of alternating layers of marl and sandstone through which, during the driest periods of the year, trickle small amounts of water (a little perennial spring flows around the side of the escarpment).
