Made from the region’s signature Ribolla Gialla grape, it offers a refreshing style shaped by Collio’s prized marl soils and the estate’s long-standing winemaking tradition dating back to 1868.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a clear straw-yellow color with subtle green reflections, giving it a bright and lively appearance. The nose is delicate and inviting, with notes of acacia blossom, citrus, and a fresh floral lift that reflects the grape’s natural aromatic charm.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is dry, linear, and finely textured, with a balanced freshness that makes every sip feel clean and precise. Its aging potential is best enjoyed in youth for its vibrant fruit and freshness, though the lees aging gives it enough structure to hold well over the short to medium term.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from vineyards in the heart of Collio, in Capriva del Friuli, where south-facing slopes and marl-rich soils create ideal conditions for Ripolla Gialla to ripen while retaining freshness. Harvest is carried out by hand in September during the coolest morning hours, followed by gentle whole-cluster pressing, destemming, a few days of cold maceration, and fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks. The wine is then matured on fine lees for several months to build harmony and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs beautifully with seafood, shellfish, light fish dishes, risottos, fresh salads, and delicate vegetable-based starters.
