The winery’s website states that this wine is mostly Ribolla Gialla. In the U.S. if a grape variety is on the label, federal law requires a minimum of 75% of that variety in the wine. So, we know that much. Ribolla Gialla is an ancient grape, with its first mention dating from the late 1290s according to Wine Grapes by Jancis Robinson, et al. It is an ethereal wine with a pale yellow color and delicate citrus, floral, and saline aromas. It is light bodied with citrus, white peach flavors and laser-focused acidity that will pair well with fried calamari, sushi, sashimi or a salad of spring greens.
