Ronco Dei Pini 2006 Pinot Grigio (Collio)

Thicker and more concentrated than your run-of-the-mill Pinot Grigio, this refreshing white offers notes of white peach, honey and leachy fruit. It has a creamy, dense feel and enough acidity to keep it lively and crisp. — M.L. (7/1/2008)

Ronco Dei Pini 2006 Tocai Friulano (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

There’s a soothing, buttery or creamy quality here backed by aromas of peach and melon that are well-dosed in terms of intensity. The bouquet offers pretty floral fragrances with light fruit nuances. There’s also a definite grapefruit-like sourness on the finish. — M.L. (11/15/2008)

This expression of the Friulano variety (one of the most traditional grapes of northeast Italy) offers measured aromas of peach, pear and passionfruit. The wine is spicy and dense and exhibits a creamy mouthfeel that would work with spicy fried chicken wings. — M.L. (8/1/2009)

Ronco Dei Pini 2006 Chardonnay (Collio)

Online Exclusive

Price $17

Stone fruit, citrus and mineral tones color this fresh Chardonnay made by Claudio and Giuseppe Novello. The aromas are direct and generous but slightly disjointed in places, especially at the very start. The wine tastes slightly sweet and ends with tart fruit flavors. — M.L. (7/1/2008)

points

Ronco Dei Pini 2004 Pinot Grigio (Collio)

Price $16

A satisfactory Pinot Grigio with lemon-lime, mineral notes and dried field grass. A bit neutral and watery in the mouth, this wine would pair well with smoked cheese or sun-dried tomato pasta. At 13.5% alcohol, you'll feel the heat too. — M.L. (2/1/2006)
