Castello di Buttrio Ribolla Gialla 2020
The story of Ribolla Gialla is wrapped in the scents of the Mediterranean. Borne by waves from the island of Cephalonia, the ribolla gialla grape found a home in the hills of Friuli. It was mentioned as long ago as the 12th century and praised by Ger-man chroniclers in the 14th. Ribolla Gialla wine has always had a special place in the viticulture of eastern Friuli, where it is part and parcel of the history of empires, peoples and places. Vibrant, sun-ripe and characteristically fresh on entry, Ribolla Gialla off ers marked minerality complementing notes of broom as it tempts the palate with notes of citrus.
