How to serve it
Tasting notes
Straw yellow with greenish tints. Delicate aromas of acacia blossom and lemon, with notes of aromatic herbs. The palate is balanced and lively, the acidity bright and the minerality clearly defined, carrying through to a dry, faintly bitter finish of good length.
About this wine
Ribolla Gialla is one of Friuli's emblematic native white grapes, and Tenuta di Angoris grows it on the estate it has occupied near Cormons since 1648.
In the Villa Locatelli version the vines sit on stony ground with red clay rich in iron oxides, a soil that gives the wine its pronounced mineral streak. Winemaking is kept simple so that character comes through: a brief cold maceration, fermentation at controlled temperature and five months in stainless steel, with no oak. The outcome is a bright, savoury white with the firm acidity that makes Ribolla such a good companion at the table.
