Jan 16th, 2019Lemon, tangerine, tart apple and wet rocks. Intense honey aroma and some floral notes emerging with air. Pretty frizzante bubbles rising to the surface. Bracing minerality and leesy quality lingering on the finish. Stay classy, Friuli.

Jun 22nd, 2018A nicely rounded wine with plenty of salinity, yellow apple, citrus peel, and apricot, moving through medium acidity and a soft finish. Good pairing with blackened cod and corn salsa

Jun 6th, 2018The benchmark in Friuli for this variety. Subtle, saline, complex. Elegant, as always. I believe this is a proprietary clone that doesn’t develop candied, chemical aromas & flavors. Well-made, like all RDC wines. #ribollagialla #friuli

Jul 20th, 2017All around well made wine, no outstanding qualities just solid. $20 price point is prohibitive for a wine of this quality.

Bright and crisp on the palate with a great acid structure and extremely long finish that moves from fruit to minerals to floral aspects and back to fruit. Not showing any signs of diminishing quality even for a 2007.
