Description
What type of wine it is
Doro Princic's Collio Ribolla Gialla, with its controlled designation of origin, is a white wine that elegantly embodies the character of the Friulian Ribolla Gialla, presenting a straw-yellow colour with bright greenish reflections. On the nose, it opens with notes of acacia, hints of woodland and subtle touches of oak. On the palate, it reveals a dynamic profile, supported by a pleasant freshness and a mineral savouriness. The persistence and balance of the mouthful make it perfect for pairing with lean fish, shellfish, white meats and cheeses.
Where it comes from
This expression comes to life in Cormons, on the renowned Pradis hills, in the heart of the Collio. The vineyards, tended by Doro Princic since 1960, are rooted in predominantly marly soil, a composition that conveys a marked mineral imprint to the fruit. The unique microclimate of the area favours optimal ripening of the clusters, allowing for a clear aromatic profile that faithfully reflects the vocation of its land of origin.
How it is produced
Production involves a careful manual harvest, carried out in the coolest hours of the morning to preserve the grapes' natural fragrance. Whole bunches are subjected to a soft pressing to extract the free-run must, which ferments in temperature-controlled tanks. The process continues with a slow ageing on the fine lees for at least eight months. This phase gives the wine considerable complexity and structure, prolonging its final persistence and maintaining a vital freshness.
History and interesting facts
Since 1960, the Doro Princic winery has been enhancing the hills of Pradis, carrying forward a family tradition of excellence. This Ribolla Gialla originates from marly soils and a careful manual harvest carried out in the early hours of the morning. Under the expert guidance of Alessandro Princic, ageing on fine lees for eight months enriches the palate, releasing persuasive notes of acacia. With an annual production of 45,000 bottles, the wine offers a long finish, providing a fresh taste and an identity deeply linked to the Collio territory.

The pride of Princic is the Collio Pinot Bianco that the average of the last five years with 60 tons of grapes per hectare went bottles to more than 13 ° and a challenging natural dry extract of greater than 20 g / l to ensure freshness "all-steel" with hints of fresh fruit yeast wildflowers unforgettable.
