Ribolla Gialla, a white grape variety native to the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region in northeastern Italy, is renowned for its bright acidity, versatility, and unique character in winemaking. This grape has a long history in the region, dating back to at least the 13th century. It thrives in the hilly, cool climate of Friuli, which allows it to develop its signature high acidity and distinct flavors. The name "Ribolla" is believed to be derived from the Slovenian word "rebula," reflecting the grape's presence in both Italian and Slovenian wine regions.
Grape variety: Rebula
Vinification: hand picked grapes are crushed under low pressure. The must is cooled to 10°C. After settling for 24-hours, clear must is racked into stainless steel tanks for fermentation into wine. Fermentation is quickly followed by decanting to preserve the fruitiness of the wine, causing no biological deacidification. Wine is bottled in the summer of the year after harvest.
Tasting notes: straw yellow colour. Gentle citrus with apple aromas. On the palate: mineral wine with elegant aftertaste and pleasant acidity.
