Ribolla Gialla is a historic white grape from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, particularly Collio DOC. It thrives in marl and sandstone soils, producing vibrant, textural wines.
Characteristics
The wine has a pale gold color with green reflections. Notes of white flowers, green apple, and citrus (yuzu, lime) are layered with a chalky minerality. On the palate, it is crisp with a rounded mid-palate and a bitter almond finish.
Pairings
Pairs with Friulian prosciutto, frico (cheese crisp), and seafood like branzino al cartoccio.
Curiosities
Ribolla Gialla was mentioned in 13th-century documents. Some producers use extended skin contact for “orange wine” styles.
