Description
What kind of wine it is
Collio Ribolla Gialla by Doro Princic is a still white wine that elegantly expresses the qualities of Ribolla Gialla. It displays a straw yellow colour with greenish highlights and releases a pleasant and alluring bouquet, characterised by notes of acacia, woodland nuances and subtle hints of oak. On the palate, it is dynamic, supported by a marked freshness, clear savouriness and a long, persistent finish. Thanks to its balance, it is the ideal companion for fish dishes, shellfish, white meats and cheeses.
Where it comes from
This white wine originates from the hills of Pradis, in the heart of the Friulian Collio. The vineyards tended by Doro Princic take root in marl soil, a distinctive element that imparts pronounced minerality to the grapes. The agronomic management respects the essence of the Cormons area and its unique microclimate, encouraging optimal ripening of the grapes. The result is a glass with a strong territorial identity, offering a clean aromatic profile and a sip deeply connected to its land of origin.
How it is produced
The production process begins with a careful manual harvest, carried out in the early hours of the morning to preserve the aromatic integrity of the grapes. After gentle pressing of the whole bunches, the free-run must ferments in temperature-controlled tanks to maintain the fragrance of the aromas. The wine then undergoes a slow ageing on fine lees for at least eight months: an essential resting period to enrich the structure of the sip and give complexity and persistence to the drink.
History and Curiosities
Since 1960, the Doro Princic winery has been devotedly cultivating vineyards on the hills of Pradis, continuing a family tradition focused on excellence. This elegant Collio DOC is born from marl soils through a meticulous manual harvest carried out during the coolest hours of the morning. The artisanal cellar practices, overseen by Alessandro Princic, include ageing on fine lees for at least eight months, giving this Ribolla Gialla a seductive bouquet of acacia and a fresh, long-lasting palate, an authentic expression of the region.
