Le uve vengono interamente raccolte a mano, a perfetta maturazione. L’acino viene separato dal raspo. Fermentazione e macerazione durano circa 15 giorni. Dopo la svinatura il vino viene fatto maturare per circa 12 – 15 mesi in botticelle di rovere. Poi viene assemblato in vasche di acciaio e successivamente lasciato in bottiglia per 5 mesi.

Colore rosso rubino, profumo e sapore leggermente erbaceo, con note di tabacco, struttura complessa e morbida, di grande equilibrio. Nel tempo si affina notevolmente e sviluppa un grande bouquet.

Adatto agli arrosti di carni bianche come il galletto e rosse come il roastbeef, ideale per i bolliti anche della tradizione, e per le carni in umido.

Foundation that reinvests its proceeds in social projects and a family-style residential home. Vineyards in Collio DOC on "ponca" soils. Production focused on regional white wines and a few cru selections. Winery history documented since 1868. Venues for hospitality, tastings and events.
Winery history
The estate was founded in the second half of the 19th century, when Elvine Ritter de Zàhony and Count Theodor de La Tour transformed Russiz into a pioneering wine property. Over the course of the 20th century the estate evolved into today’s Fondazione Villa Russiz: proceeds are dedicated to social initiatives and a family-style care home, while the winery preserves Collio’s winemaking tradition and develops cru lines and fine wines.
Production philosophy
Putting the land first: rigorous vineyard management, respect for Collio's microclimate, and winemaking designed to express the characteristics of each grape variety. The Foundation combines enological quality objectives with an ethical and social mission.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the Collio goriziano, the estate occupies vineyards on well‑exposed hillsides, on "ponca" soils. The microclimate, influenced by the Julian Alps and the nearby Adriatic, promotes diurnal temperature variations and intense aromas in the wines.
Awards and recognitions
More than 300 national and international awards received over the years.
