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.

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.
