Ribolla Gialla 2023 Marco Sara
The Ribolla Gialla 2023 by Marco Sara is a white wine that embodies freshness, authenticity, and a deep connection to the Colli Orientali del Friuli. Youthful and light, it is the product of a passionate winemaker who, since 2000, has revitalized his family’s winery with a modern, eco-conscious approach rooted in local traditions.
The pure Ribolla Gialla grapes come from organic vineyards in Povoletto, Udine. The clay-rich and sandstone marl soils provide the wine with exceptional freshness and minerality, hallmarks of the Colli Orientali del Friuli. Cultivation is entirely natural, using only plant and animal residues for fertilization while avoiding synthetic products entirely.
The Ribolla Gialla is crafted with a respectful and minimalist philosophy. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with native yeasts in stainless steel tanks, with no malolactic fermentation, to preserve the wine’s fresh character. Aging takes place in steel for several months, ensuring stability while maintaining the grape’s natural properties.
In the glass, the Ribolla Gialla reveals a bright, clear straw-yellow hue. The nose offers a delightful array of fresh and inviting aromas: acacia flowers, white fruit, and subtle herbal notes like anise and elderflower. On the palate, it is smooth and refreshing, with a balanced acidity that enhances its drinkability and leaves the palate clean and invigorated.
The Ribolla Gialla 2023 by Marco Sara is a wine that tells the story of Friuli’s authenticity, making it ideal for everyday enjoyment. Its lightness and freshness pair effortlessly with seafood dishes, seasonal vegetables, and fresh cheeses.
