Tenimenti Civa Ribolla Gialla Friuli Colli Orientali

Tenimenti Civa are based in the Bellazola village in the Friuli Colli Orientali wine region. Valerio Civa's dream is to promote and spread knowledge about the Ribolla Gialla grape veriety indigenous to this area. A grape with a rich flavour profile balanced by high natural acidity, well suited to producing quality still and sparkling white wines.

For this Ribolla Gialla, the vines grow on marl and sandstone soils. Harvesting grapes at the coolest hours of the day to retain freshness and aromatics. Fermentation is carried out over the course of 15 days in stainless steel tanks at 16-18 degrees Celsius.

• Tenimenti Civa Ribolla Gialla Friuli Colli Orientali is a pale lemon colour with green tinges
• An intense, mineral nose of fresh lemon, grapefruit, white peach and blossom
• Delicate and refreshing on the palate with a slightly creamy texture

A versatile wine that works well as an aperitif, or paired with light fish or vegetarian dishes, or soft cheeses.
