Enzo’s abilities are not from formal training. They are innate to his character. He has excruciatingly high standards. He is his harshest critic. Only wines deemed exceptional by Pontoni go into Miani bottles. For this reason many vintages do not see the full line of wines. His philosophy is similar to many other great winemakers, old vines, tiny yields and meticulous attention to the vines. Enzo just takes the effort to a nearly possessed level.
White wine vinifications utilize very delicate extractions, barrel fermentations, no malolactic fermentation except for Chardonnay, and no temperature control. Enzo produces three reds, Merlot Filip (Rosazzo), Merlot Buri (Buttrio), and Calvari, 100% Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso aged in 100% new oak barrels. Out of respect to his predecessors many of the wines are named after the families who tended the vineyards, Filip, Banel, and Saurint. |
