Dorigo Ribolla Gialla

This wine is a clear straw yellow. Florality predominates in the nose which is complemented by back-
ground notes of tropical fruit. The palate is very savory, with pronounced yet well-balanced acidity- fresh, minerally finish.

The grapes were picked in mid September. On arrival at the cellar, they were chilled with
carbon dioxide snow before crushing to preserve their aromas. Alcoholic fermentation took place in
stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures, in order to retain the variety’s subtle sensory characteristics. 

Ribolla Gialla is indisputably native to Friuli, where it is cultivated almost exclusively in the hill country, including the Carso plateau as far as Istria. The variety gives the best results in hillslope vineyards at comparatively high planting densities.
