Vintage Wine Name	Luna di Ponca DOC Collio Bianco 2021
Vintage	2021
Wine Description	Luna di Ponca is the flagship wine of Borgo Conventi, featuring the structure, elegance and texture that makes Collio DOC Italy’s premier white winemaking region. This blend of Friulano, Chardonnay, and Malvasia shows freshness and minerality that result from hillside vineyards planted on ponca soils and a climate with pronounced swings between daytime and nighttime temperatures that generate complexity and depth.
Appellation	Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Varietal Composition	Friulano, Chardonnay, Malvasia Istriana
Tasting notes	A surprising freshness mingles with the intense aromas that are typical of the Collio area. The nose opens with notes of lemon zest, lime wood, yellow roses and jasmine, which then elegantly give way to pleasant, engaging scents of freshly baked bread, ripe apples and butter biscuits. Its exceptional structure is immediately revealed in the mouth. The acidity of the Chardonnay gives a hint of fragrance to the flavor, the Friulano is beautiful and smooth, while the Malvasia delivers a distinctive, full and pleasant finish. Together they create a sophisticated and original flavor and aroma, reflecting the superior quality of the wines of the Collio.
Pairing notes	A showcase white wine to pair with main courses of veal, pork, and poultry. Also stunning with fresh fish and richer seafood, such as scallops and lobster.
Alcohol %	14.0
Aging	The Friulano is placed in stainless steel vats and the Chardonnay and Malvasia in small 225-liter durmast oak barrels and the lees are stirred frequently when alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is complete. After the summer, the wine is assembled and left to rest in steel vats for a few months before being bottled; the wine spends a further nine months in the bottle before being released onto the market.

Winery	Borgo Conventi
Winery Description	Located in Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, Tenuta Borgo Conventi was established in 1975 and was named in homage to the first monastery (“convento”) founded in the province of Farra d’Isonzo on land donated by a noble family in the 17th century. Borgo Conventi’s white wines hail from the winery’s oldest vineyards in the hills of Collio, a DOC region known for producing exceptional and mineral-driven white wines due to its signature ponca soil series. This unique soil is composed of marl and sandstone and contains marine fossils. The structure and elegance of the Collio white wines is also due to its ideal growing climate and location on the border of Slovenia and between the Julian Alps and the Adriatic Sea, which features significant differences in daytime and nighttime temperatures, resulting in complexity. Tenuta Borgo Conventi has been owned and managed by the Moretti Polegato family since 2019.
