La Castellada
Collio Ribolla Gialla
Retrained for orange wine. Incredible. Nutty sherry notes. Amazing dried apricot. Great acid. 800 btls produced.

Mar 5th, 2016Collio DOC 2009, bottle tasted in February 2015.
60 days contact with the skins, fermented in oak.
Beautiful golden yellow color, very limpid and bright.
Nose: at first rather alcoholic, then sweet, powdered sugar, soft and buttery, intense, rich, caramel notes.
In the mouth it's rich, potent, rather tannic.
There is a persistent astringency, it needs much refining time.
Not easy to drink on it's own, must be paired carefully.

Colore ambrato con note aranciate, al naso profumi di mandarino e rosa si uniscono ad un confetto dolce che penso sia dovuto al legno. La bocca è tannica con un retrogusto amarognolo che a me un po' disturba.

Nov 9th, 2013ほんの少し熟成香。
上品な樽香。酸もミネラルも優しい。ただいいワインなのだが、ちょっと印象が薄いかな。
