Winery Noelia Ricci

The Noelia Ricci project was born within Tenuta Pandolfa; the initiative began in 2010 and saw its first harvest in 2013. The estate's family history is reflected in its production choices: the vineyards were replanted, and the operation is now managed by the next generation with the aim of enhancing the vineyard plots in Predappio and the native grape varieties.

A pursuit of terroir expression and the classic Sangiovese of Romagna: winemaking with indigenous yeasts, controlled macerations and limited intervention. Strong focus on vineyard sustainability and adherence to organic practices.

Vineyards are located in the Predappio subzone, on a southeast-facing ridge at 200–340 m above sea level; soils are composed of spungone, sandstones and sulphurous/calcareous marls, with abundant ochre clays and sands.

Noelia Ricci's wines, particularly Godenza, have received national and international recognition: Tre Bicchieri from Gambero Rosso, scores of 94–95 from Wine Enthusiast, accolades from Veronelli, and awards from Slow Wine, among others.
