Another first for me: Ribolla Gialla. It makes a Prosecco like introduction of soft aromas - pear, red apple, lemon and white flowers. But the palette is much more austere. Bolder flavors of bitter green almonds and toasted bread, but no pre-baked autolyse - just that toasty note.
Rich and significantly more interesting than Glera. — 5 years ago
Burst of acetic acid, great tamed tannins at the end, mulch nose, candied/dried orange peel, brackish water?
Beautiful copper red/orange tint that reminds me of fall. — 4 years ago

Deeply colored, fruity, very aromatic skin-contact orange wine made with Jakot/Tocai Friuliano from 60 years-old vineyards in Oslavia (Italy’s Collio region, right on the border with Slovenia) that Princic has been farming without pesticides since the 1980s. Alongside Oslavia neighbors Josko Gravner and Stanislao Radikon, Princic is recognized as one of the region’s natural and orange wine pioneers, known for the early adoption of bio-dynamic practices and use of extended skin macerations and lengthy aging – in this case, 22 days on skins and 2 years in botti. Rich, concentrated, with beautiful aromas of apricot, honey and peach gummy hearts. Some spice, herbal notes. Mineral, salty, great finish. — 4 years ago
