Grapes
Ribolla Gialla.
Vineyard
The fields of the Estate, in the municipality of Buttrio (Udine), ideal location for excellent wine making. The C.D.O. (controlled denomination of origin) is Friuli Colli Orientali. The soil is composed of marl and sandstone with a predominantly clayey component. Crop protection is low environmental impact, focussing on traditional product with a short persistence, used according to the agro-alimentary programme for crop protection.
Vinification
White wine fermentation (without skins) following gentle pressing at low temperature under immobile covering to protect the potential quality of the grapes from oxidisation. Low temperature fermentation (17 °C) to help develop and preserve the most characteristic aromas of this grape variety.
Ageing
In stainless steel tanks to prevent the wine from clouding thanks to agitation of the fine lees. The wine remains “sur lies” until bottling. The ageing period continues in bottle, stored in the underground cellar.
Appearance
Straw yellow colour.
Nose
Fine and pleasant fragrance releasing a clean and flowery bouquet.
Palate
The flavour is full with a correct acidic balance. The characteristic acidity lends an appealing freshness and enhances the natural fruitiness (green apples).
Food pairing
Excellent served as an aperitif, with light hors d’oeuvres, delicate soups, salty fish, and white meats
Longevity
Reaches maximum expression of the vine in the first two years and then develops elegantly for a period that can easily exceed four years.
Service
Best served chilled (12 °C)
