Description

At a crossroad between the road going from Gorizia to the summit of San Floriano del Collio and the one that goes down to the Preval lies the Muzic company, belonging to Ivan and Orieta and their children Elija and Fabijan.

The authenticity of their work and the prevalence of native vineyards and old plants offer the opportunity to enjoy “the garden of Gorizia”, the original Collio; you will be inebriated by the scents and flavours that the Muzic wines will give you, that recall the lush nature surrounding their wine cellar.

THE AREA: The name and the life of our company are historically linked to the Collio, the area par excellence for white wines in Italy. The heart of our production grows and matures within the DOC Collio territories, of which San Floriano is definitely one of the most prosperous areas. The excellence in the excellence. The Muzic company has been a member of the Consortium for the protection of Collio wines for decades, the third oldest in Italy and among the first and foremost in Europe, participating in the initiatives it proposed and carried out. The demonstration of the double bond between our company and the Consortium was the adoption of the “Collio bottle”, for exclusive use with DOC Collio certified wines, made immediately recognizable by its shape, and designed to enhance the products of our territory during maturation in the bottle.

VINIFICATION: De-stemming and crushing of grapes and following maceration on the skins for 12 hours at a temperature of 15°C. Soft pressing and cleaning by setting of the obtained must. Alcoholic fermentation for 8-10 days at controlled temperature (16-18°C). After the end of the fermentation, ageing on fine lees ‘sur lie’ in steel vats with periodical batonnage for at least three months.

TASTING NOTES: Crisp, with the characteristic bouquet reminding apricot, exotic fruits and white pepper.

PALATE: Dry, tangy, perky, with a robust and fine body.
