Grapes: Rebula (Ribolla Gialla)
First Glance: Rich, Orchard Fruit, Spice, Textural
The Wine:
Grapes are fermented with the skins for tannic grip, moving the grapes into barriques to finish alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation as well. Ages 18 months in 225L barriques.
The bouquet is intense and expresses a rich intertwining of fruitiness with herbs. We perceive yellow apple, quince, ripe pear, and red grapefruit. Gentle hints of vanilla are intertwined with aromas of sage and thyme. The spectrum is rounded off by a pleasant scent of heated marl. The taste is balanced by minerality and youthful freshness, and we also sense a tannic grip. Long-lasting aftertaste.
