THE WINE
This Ribolla Gialla, like all Confinis wines, is relatively young; in fact, the winery was founded in 2017 from the will of Francesco Rotolo, who, in addition to being a young winemaker, is also a son of art; in fact, his family created two wineries, Mario Schiopetto and Volpe Pasini.
Francesco selected a few hectares of hills between Capriva del Friuli and Cormons where, thanks to his experience, he wants to create fresh and pleasant wines with low alcohol content.
The Ribolla Gialla is a native vine of Friuli Venezia Giulia, producing fresh and fragrant wine known and appreciated by everyone in the wine world.
THE WINEMAKING
The harvest is strictly manual and occurs at the end of August. Once in the cellar, the must ferments in steel for a period ranging between 10 and 12 days at a controlled temperature of 15/16° C. The wine ages in steel for about seven months, and after bottling, it rests in the cellar for a few months before being placed on the market.
THE TASTING
Pale straw yellow; the aroma is elegant and delicate, with pleasant floral notes of white and yellow flowers that leave room for hints of hazelnut on the finish. This Ribolla Gialla is velvety with a good structure on the palate, enhanced by the typical acidity of this wine. The correspondence between aromas and flavor is excellent. Persistent.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Excellent as an aperitif, it goes well with fish, even raw. Try it with sushi.
