Ego 2019 Bressan

Ego 2019 is a red wine produced by Bressan in Farra d’Isonzo in Friuli and obtained from Schioppettino and Cabernet grapes. Manual harvest and crushing, then fermentation on the skins for about a month, with daily punching down, pumping over and delestage. At this point the fermented must is separated from the skins, which are delicately pressed in order to facilitate complete draining. The wine is then placed in 2000 liter barrels of different passages, where the secondary fermentation activity continues and refines for the following 3 or 4 years with periodic batonnage. Here, malolactic therapy is carried out in a natural way. Ego is a unique and hand-signed wine, sensational in combination with game-based dishes. The nose is varied with hints that vary from musk to aromatic wood, from goudron to truffle notes and dark spices. When tasted it is superb, fresh and tasty, velvety and long.

  Crushing, then fermentation on the skins for approximately 30 days, with daily punching down, pumping over and delestage. Subsequently, the fermented must is separated from the skins, which are gently pressed only to facilitate total draining and nothing else. The wine is then placed in different 2000 liter barrels, where the secondary fermentation activity continues. In these barrels the wine decides autonomously and completely naturally when to carry out malolactic fermentation. In the following 3/4 years the wine continues its refinement on the yeasts with periodic batonnage.

Hints of undergrowth and a bouquet of pepper and moss, then closes with tar, truffle and aromatic wood. 

Superb wine with velvety tannins, full but fresh sip, balanced structure and long and persistent finish

Serving temperature 16°-18°

Game, but also for meditation

Each bottle is signed by hand, like all unique wines and this one certainly is

Farra d’Isonzo (Gorizia)

Bressan is one of those companies we are really proud of, radical, purist, uncompromising… great!

The Bressan family carries on a tradition expertly handed down from master winemaker to master winemaker and categorically rejects any type of modernity or technology, because it flattens the wine.

The company is spread over several territories and has a total of 20 hectares of vineyards.

These are the cornerstones of this crazy winery:
