Ribolla Gialla Igt Venezia Giulia (0.75)

Ribolla Gialla Igt Venezia Giulia

Production Area – The vineyards are located between the municipalities of Manzano and Spessa di Cividale, on the Colli Orientali del Friuli, an area particularly suited to hillside viticulture. 

Municipalities Spessa, Cividale del Friuli - Manzano

Altitude 70-100m asl

Soil – In Spessa the soil is notoriously called Ponca, a mixture of marl and sandstone that has stratified over the millennia. The alkaline nature of the soil, rich in calcium carbonate, together with the significant temperature variations, gives the wines flavor and minerality. In Manzano the soil is composed by marl and clay which contribute to the production of particularly structured and intense white wines.

Production Process – For the production of Ribolla Gialla we start from a blend of grapes selected directly in the vineyard. The grapes are harvested and cooled to a temperature of around 10°C. After soft pressing and fermentation, 90% of the wine is vinified in steel for approximately 12 months, while the remaining part is vinified in French oak tonneaux. The two batches are then blended to proceed with cold stabilization, filtration, bottling and packing procedures.

Organoleptic Characteristics Intense straw yellow; notes of bloomed white flowers and chamomile emerge on the nose. Fullbodied wine rich in aromas of ripe fruit and exotic fruit. Good sapidity and persistence on the finishing.
