Descrizione

The Rosso Collio DOC Riserva by Renato Keber presents an elegant, measured profile, an expression of the denomination named in the title. Visually it shows a compact ruby color; on the nose it opens with scents of ripe red fruit, spicy nuances and light balsamic notes alternating with earthy hints. The olfactory impression is consistent and invites tasting. The overall impression suggests a wine that combines character and drinkability, suitable for both convivial moments and more attentive tastings.

On the palate it reveals structure and substance, with tannins that are present but well integrated and a balance between freshness and softness. The finish is clean and of good persistence, fitting to accompany meat dishes, savory roasts and hard cheeses. It is recommended served at moderate temperature (16–18 °C) and with generous portions to highlight its body. Ideal for those seeking a characterful red from the Collio area, to enjoy now or with some further development in bottle. Its versatility makes it suitable for informal dinners as well as more formal occasions; it also pairs well with dishes from local cuisine.

Winery history

The Keber family settled in Zegla in the early 20th century: great-grandfather Franc arrived from Vipulzano in 1900. The estate is family-run across four generations and began exports to the USA in the 1990s.

Production philosophy

Focus on expressive, age-worthy wines; extended lees ageing in steel and selectively in wood. For some wines (e.g. Ribolla 'Extreme') traditional practices are used, such as open-cement maceration with indigenous yeasts and no temperature control.

Terroir and vineyards

Location Zegla, Cormòns (Collio). Collio: gently sloping south‑east hill near the Slovenian border; soils known as 'ponca' (middle Eocene marl and sandstone / Cormons flysch), highly suitable for viticulture.
