Description
The Butussi Ribolla Gialla is a delicious, medium bodied, dry white wine from Friuli in north-eastern Italy. Supremely elegant and delicately floral on the nose, the palate shows crisp citrus and peach fruit that mingles with fresh almonds. The well-balanced finish is superbly clean and fresh. Elegant, harmonious and a terrific wine to pair with shellfish.
The grapes for this fabulous wine are hand-harvested at optimum ripeness, destemmed and gently crushed before resting on their skins for 12-16 hours, promoting the natural aromatics and helping give structure to the finished wine. Fermentation lasts 14 days at a cool temperature and the wine is then aged in concrete for 8 months prior to release, with minimul sulphur additions.
