Description

With 100% Centesimino grapes in Brisighella, in the province of Ravenna, Colchico is born.

The vineyards are grown on clayey soil with permanent grassing, exposed to the South-West at 120 - 150 meters above sea level, and trained with the spurred cordon system. The harvest is done manually between 15-20 September, followed by vinification with 20/25 days of maceration; in the first 5 days, 4 pumping overs are carried out per day. The wine rests for 6 months in a vitrified cement tank.

Ruby red in colour. Typical olfactory hints of the vine arrive on the nose, with floral, spicy and fruity aromatic hints; of violet, ground pepper and wild strawberries. The taste opens with a fruity and aromatic fragrance well balanced by the refreshing acidity. A slight tannic component with a long and pleasant aftertaste.

It goes perfectly with meat sauce, baked or grilled meats, excellent with knife-edged beef tartare.

Winery history

Operating as an agricultural and winemaking business in the calanchi di Brisighella, Cantina Bulzaga has progressively developed its production by selecting traditional, local varieties. In recent years the company completed its conversion to organic farming for all its products, strengthening a production approach that respects local ecosystems.

Production philosophy

The winery's approach is based on agroecological and organic farming practices, with attention to the area's biodiversity and an emphasis on indigenous varieties to express the identity of the Romagna hills.

Terroir and vineyards

The Rio Bazzano estate is located on the foothills of Brisighella, in a landscape of clay badlands. The soils are clayey, with west-facing exposure, good ventilation and notable diurnal temperature variation that favor the accumulation of aromas in the grapes. The estate reports an elevation of about 200 meters above sea level and a total property area of approximately 50 hectares, a portion of which is planted with vineyards.
