This wine has an intense nose with floral notes, dried fruit and citrus. The palate is nice balanced between freshness and texture, with light tannins and a touch of spice on the finish. 

Hand harvested and then fermented with wild yeasts on the skins in 15l cone shaped oak vats. There is no temperature control of addition of enzymes or yeast. After a soft pressing the wine remaining on the lees for 11 months in Slavonian oak barrels and then ages in the same barrels for another 15 months. 

The story of Ronco Severo dates back to 1968 when Stefano Novello's father decided to follow his passion and restore the ancient vineyards of the counts of Rieppi. He converted the existing house into part home, part winery. Stefano went on to study enology in 1988. Despite his initial wish to forge him own path, he eventually retuned home to the family winery. All of the vines are farmed bio-dynamically and the winemaking remains non interventionist. All the wines are macerated on their skins for extended periods of time, giving increased complexity, silky texture, and body. They are all bottled unfiltered and unfined.
