Made from an autochthonous grape variety, this luminous, pale straw coloured wine has great freshness and soft tones, with delicate fragrances of spring wild flowers, yellow peach and aromatic herbs.

This Ribolla Gialla by Cantarutti has a pale yellow colour with grey reflections. At the nose it is fragrant and floral while it the mouth it is possible to recognise its pleasant and fine acidity which makes of it an unmistakeable wine – among the other wines of Friuli – and gives it an elegant freshness.

White wine making, as it happens for all the white grapes by inoculating selected yeasts and using modern equipments in order to obtain soft presses to detriment of yield grape/must.

The fermentation occurs at a controlled temperature, which varies from 18° till 20°C, in steel tanks and it lasts not more than 12 days. After this, we make a couple of decanting in order to allow a long and natural cleaning. Until the bottling it is kept in steel tanks at a temperature of 12°C.

It has always been considered as a vintage wine thanks to its typical and unmistakeable acidity. We bottle it on middle April and this allows it to maintain its easy drinking also after two or more years.

ABOUT THE WINERY

A family business from '60

More than forty years ago the Cantarutti history as Friulian winemakers began. It was the end of the ‘60s when Alfieri Cantarutti was mesmerised by a magnificent location with a small farmhouse, set among the foothills of Rosazzo: a stunning position and a breathtaking landscape.

Passion for the territory and respect of traditions are the keys of Cantarutti success.
