Serious Friuli white: if you haven't had the wines of Ronchi do Cialla, go out of your way to try them!

So interesting. Still a lot of acidity?

Fantastic older ribolla gialla, a totally underappreciated grape from the Fruili region in northeast Italy. An absolute pleasure to drink!

Something creamy and a little old about this bottle. Not showing as nicely as the '99 I had recently, but still a rather enjoyable bottle of wine. Pear, subdued acid, and decent grip and length.

Unusual Ribolla-based blend; savoury, bitter herbs, citrus peel, a bit gluey. Not unlike marsanne, for a point of reference. Will divide people.
