More questions
The Bianco IGT Sottovento from Ronchi di Castelluccio shows a bright straw-yellow color with slight green reflections. On the nose it is straightforward and moderately complex, with aromas of white-fleshed fruit, fresh citrus and subtle floral notes; light mineral hints add a clean olfactory impression. On the palate it is medium-bodied, fresh and lively, balanced between acidity and salinity, with a flavorful finish that invites another sip without being overpowering.
It pairs well with a range of dishes: seafood starters, raw fish, baked fish, vegetable dishes and fresh cheeses. It is also suitable as an aperitif or for casual meals; its easy drinkability makes it pleasant in company. Serve slightly chilled, around 8–10 °C, in not too large glasses to preserve aromatic freshness. Storage and consumption that favor freshness are recommended, so enjoy it relatively young to appreciate its liveliness.

The story
Founded in 1974 by filmmaker/intellectual Gian Vittorio Baldi, the estate was prominent in the 1970s–1990s; acquired in 2020 by the Rametta brothers who reinstated single‑'ronco' vinification. ([ronchidicastelluccio.com](https://ronchidicastelluccio.com/chi-siamo/))
Production philosophy
Single‑cru work (micro‑vinifications), vineyard management with organic practices (grass cover, treatments limited to copper and sulfur), very low yields and ageing in lightly toasted French barriques (Allier, Vosges, Tronçais). ([ronchidicastelluccio.com](https://ronchidicastelluccio.com/chi-siamo/))
Terroir and vineyards
Hills above Modigliana (Acerreta valley), Forlì‑Cesena (Emilia‑Romagna); vineyards on marl and sandstone at roughly 250–410 m altitude; 'ronchi' are small clearings (~1 ha) each vinified separately.
