Ribolla Gialla wine offers unique nuances to the palate.

Within the white grapes there is a great variety of notes and essences that clearly differentiate each wine by its origin. Today we are going to talk about the wine made with Ribolla Gialla, a white grape variety that is grown in an exclusive area between northern Italy and Slovenia. With it, in addition to white wines, high-quality brisado or orange wines, sparkling wines and dry wines are made.

This type of grape has a very characteristic yellow skin that gives it its name, since “Gialla” means “yellow” in Italian. This same skin is also especially thick compared to other white grape varieties, which makes it suitable for maceration processes similar to those carried out with red grapes. The maceration of the wine and the juice extracted from this type of grape allows from short periods of days or months to prolonged aging of seven years and gives excellent results both in barrels and in amphora or botti (fudres).

The orange wine of Ribolla Gialla.

Although excellent sparkling wines or white wines with a great balance between acidity and fruity nuances can be made with this type of grape, Ribolla Gialla is undoubtedly famous for the excellent quality of the orange or breezy wines that are created with it. The Ribolla Anfora wine from the Gravner winery is a clear example of quality and artisan production, always a hit at your table.
