Ribolla Gialla I Clivi 2023

I Clivi's Ribolla Gialla is a light white which makes gustatory finesse and extreme drinkability its best weapons. Friuli Venezia Giulia can only be considered one of the regions of the heart for "bianchisti," also by virtue of the transversality of stylistic interpretations, which make this land a priceless heritage for passionate drinkers. Thickness and refinement are characteristics that undoubtedly ascribe the wines of the Clivi, a winery located in the Corno Di Rosazzo area that has now become an stainless reference point for those who go in search of territorial and deeply saline wines, free from heaviness and overly dense structures. Ribolla, Friulano, Malvasia, Verduzzo, and a bit of Merlot also find their best interpretations thanks to a non-interventionist approach, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. A must drink wine dedicated to lovers of wines that blend stylistic precision and depth.

This white wine is made from pure Ribolla Gialla grapes, from 30-year-old vines resting on marl-rich, south-facing soils. In the vineyard, as already mentioned, the dictates of organic farming are followed, excluding the use of any chemical or synthetic substances. In the winery they proceed with equal zeal, with fermentations occurring spontaneously in steel containers and aging of the liquid that takes place in the same container for 6-8 months in contact with the fine lees.

The Ribolla Gialla presents itself in the glass with an light straw yellow color. High aromatic definition on the nose, extremely crisp and refreshing, characterized by hints such as golden apple, verbena, lemon peel and saline puffs. On the palate the wine proves to be soft and graceful, perfectly balanced between saltiness, freshness and body.
