Ronc Platât is located just below the historic Rosazzo Monastery in the municipality of Manzano near Udine, Friuli. The region of Friuli is located in the very north-eastern corner of Italy, near the border with Slovenia.
Friuli is known for its high quality wine production and the unique terroir-driven wines that combine Italian tradition with innovation. Especially the excellent white wines, made from grapes such as Friulano, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, garner great acclaim.
Ronc Platât was founded in 2020 by Tommaso Zanuttini, a former lawyer from Milan who, after studying oenology at the University of Udine, decided to pursue his passion for wine production.
With the help and inspiration of the wine producers Ronco del Gnemiz and Due del Monte, Tommaso has quickly established himself as a skilled producer of wines with terroir, elegance and maturity. The majority of the wines come from old vineyards managed by the small team. A smaller portion of the grapes is bought from selected locations. Most vineyards are within the DOC Friuli Colli Orientali and are being converted to organic farming, with certification from 2024.
The vines are trained with the Guyot system, and yields are kept low at 2-4 tonnes per year. hectares. The vineyards are treated only with Bordeaux mixture (copper sulphate), sulfur and natural agents, and the harvest is done manually.
In 2022, the winery produced a total of 16,000 bottles, and in 2023 production increased to 27,000 bottles, thanks to a project with two Slovenian vineyards. The aim is to achieve a production of approx. 35,000 bottles.
The wines of Ronc Platât are sought after and are already available in some of the best restaurants in Italy and are also exported to the USA, UK and now Denmark too!
At Copenhagen Wine, we are proud to present Ronc Platât. These are wines that radiate quality and dedication in every bottle.
In addition to the Ronc Platât brand, Tommaso also vinifies and bottles the GAF wines (Garagisti Anonimi Friulani).
GAF (Garagisti Anonimi Friulani) is an exciting project started in 2019 by Tommy Zanuttini and four friends with a shared passion for wine. This project is a true tribute to camaraderie and the love of wine. The goal of this collective project is to experiment with blends and explore lesser-known vineyards in the Friuli area.
Although GAF started as a small, anonymous venture, it is now already known for its unique wines created in one of the guys' garages. The wines from GAF are deeply rooted in Friuli's wine tradition, but at the same time they have a modern and energetic expression, which reflects the group's vision of the future of Friuli's wines.
The white wines from vintage 2022 are characterized by being very balanced and with a high degree of elegance.
They are the result of a year where the weather started out with lots of heat and minimal rain. There were no widespread diseases or defects in the plants and at the end of the season the rains came and provided the perfect amount and thus created a good balance.
