Intense amber colour with golden highlights. The aroma is characterised by intense fruity notes of dried apricot and orange peel, with hints of candied fruit such as cedar and dried flowers, finishing with light notes of vanilla and liquorice. On the palate the wine is dry and fresh, very full-bodied and rich in aromas and sensations, the perfect representation of the Ribolla Gialla grape.
It pairs very well with aged and blue cheeses, sweet and sour pork, fish soup and stewed eel. It can also become a meditation wine if served at the end of a lunch or dinner. The recommended serving temperature is between 14 and 16°C, lower temperatures will impair its pleasantness.
