FROM GRAPES

Ribolla Gialla

Service temperature: 8°C

After a first fermentation partly in steel and partly in barriques; the 100% Ribolla Gialla base is fermented in large horizontal autoclaves; this is followed by aging on the lees for a period of never less than 30 lunar cycles, during which the refermentation continues very slowly until the residual sugar is below 3 g/l.

12 months in the bottle are necessary to complete the long aging process.

Perfect as an aperitif, it accompanies fish appetizers and cured meats, excellent for finger food.

VINIFICATION TECHNIQUE, REFOMMA AND AGING

The grapes, grown on the eastern hills, are selected and hand-picked in crates strictly in the morning after the breeze from the north-east has dried the thin veil of nocturnal humidity.

The delicate pressing of the intact grapes is followed by the natural settling of the must for a whole night. The first fermentation, at 14°C, takes place partly in steel and partly in barriques.

The following spring, the Ribolla Gialla is fermented very slowly at 12°C in large horizontal autoclaves; this is followed by refinement sur lies (on the lees) for a period of never less than 30 lunar cycles, during which the refermentation continues very slowly until the residual sugar is below 3 g/l.

Bottling is carried out in the complete absence of oxygen.

More than 12 months in the bottle are needed to complete the long aging process.

WINE

Straw yellow color of excellent saturation and soft greenish reflections; perlage of rare finesse and excellent persistence.

Floral, fresh and citrus nose, which develops on fragrant notes of yeast and face powder, slowly releasing an intriguing white-fleshed peach fruit.

The sip is full, sapid, extremely vertical and extraordinarily harmonious.

The power of the taste amplifies the harmony of a long fruity finish.
