Tenuta di Angoris Ribolla Gialla Friuli

A beautifully bright, precise, and wonderfully refreshing expression of a legendary native white grape variety from northeastern Italy, this Ribolla Gialla displays a luminous straw-yellow color with delicate greenish highlights. The nose is instantly appealing, unfolding with a clean, elegant bouquet of crisp yellow apples, white peach, and fresh lemon blossoms, layered with subtle undertones of wet stones, field herbs, and a touch of wild saffron. On the palate, it is light- to medium-bodied, linear, and beautifully structured. A juicy core of orchard fruit is braced by a signature, razor-sharp alpine acidity and a driving, saline minerality that provides immense vitality. The finish is wonderfully clean, completely dry, and mouthwateringly persistent.

Food Pairing: Outstanding as an elegant opening aperitif, or paired with raw seafood crudo, oysters, light vegetable tempura, grilled sea bass, or traditional frico (Friulian melted cheese and potato pancake).
