ISIDORO POLENCIC WINERY
Isidoro Polencic entails a journey towards the northern-eastern part of Italy, to the famed Collio region, on the borders between Italy and Slovenia. This is a place with a long-standing tradition of dedication to viticulture, a place blessed by the proximity of the sea and protected by the mountains. The family produces white wines from grapes that are rigorously selected, noble and speak to the beauty of the land from which they were born.
The vineyards date from 10 to 25 years old and they use the Guyot system providing good density. The soil is rich and comprised largely ofmarl and sandstone.
