History
Venica & Venica dates to 1930, when Daniele Venica bought Ronco del Cerò at Dolegna del Collio; his grandsons Gianni and Giorgio took over in 1977 and planted Sauvignon in 1984. From the ideal northwest exposure they created the Ronco delle Mele Sauvignon, first made in 1995 and now one of Italy's most celebrated white wines.
