Ribolla Gialla Seriade 2021, Tenimenti Civa, Venezia Giulia

Pillowy light but with a puckery lemon zest and barely there toast this is a bombshell of an Italian disco-queen! And at 10.5%? We'll take six fingers. Ice cold. With a straw. 
Tenimenti Civa is part of an ongoing effort to revitalize commercial growing of the Ribolla Gialla grape varietal in Friuli and Venezia Giulia. Historically indigenous to the Alpine foothills of Italy and Slovenia, it's a wonderful and delicate little varietal. Truly ancient and worth preserving!
