This white wine represents the essence of Collio and of the Blanchis hill: it is a blend of our original Friulano, a very elegant Chardonnay, a touch of Malvasia and a fragrant Sauvignon. Tocai Friulano is harvested when it begins to come attacked by the noble mold (botrytis cinerea) which creates a complexity hardly repeatable in other areas. The Chardonnay, characterized by calcareous soils, is vinified in new wood and gives a touch of extraordinary elegance. Then the notes of Malvasia and Sauvignon complete the cut with fresh and fascinating notes, typical of our area.

Pinot Grigio is recognized in the world as the most classic Italian grape and finds its best success in the Collio, where it is expressed in an exemplary way. We cultivate it in the hill of Blanchis, which over the years, has always shown an incredible production regularity, making it clear that it is a true wine of the region. Its delicate notes of pear and flint make it a perfectly balanced wine. This vintage also presents a fascinating color that slightly leans towards rosé. In the mouth, it is full and round but with a fresh and inviting finish.

In the 1950s Stefan Penninger III imported Rum from the Caribbean and also sold it to miners working in nearby graphite quarries.

So after 50 years, from this distant family appeal, Stefan Penninger V, current owner of the distillery, thought of recreating a fascinating blend of Rum from 6 different origins that balance well with each other: Barbados, Guyana, Trinidad, Jamaica, Panama and the Dominican Republic.

Graphit comes first with a natural color, because it is without the addition of dyes, then it has decidedly fruity scents and a good softness but given by the richness of these rums, because it is also without the addition of sugars. On the palate it is very persistent and fascinating smoky notes emerge that derive from the aging in wood for about 5 years.

Chardonnay vine finds his best expression in the marl and limestones of Collio soil. In this case, a careful selection from a small particle (1.00 hectar) located in the most calcareous side of the hill, expresses elegance and extraordinary fineness.

This white wine represents the essence of the Collio appellation and in particular of the Blanchis hill. It is a blend made up of our original Friulano, an incredibly elegant Chardonnay, a touch of Malvasia and a fragrant Sauvignon. The Tocai Friulano is harvested when starting to be attacked by noble rot (botrytis cinerea) which creates a complexity hard to find in other production areas. Instead the Chardonnay, which is planted on the top of the Blanchis hill where the terrain is rich in limestone, is vinified in new oak barriques and gives the wine an incredible elegance. The Malvasia and the Sauvignon complete the blend with fresh and fascinating notes, typical of our area.
