The Primosic Ribolla Gialla Riserva 2019 is a refined and complex expression of the ancient Ribolla Gialla grape, crafted by one of Friuli-Venezia Giulia’s most respected producers, Primosic. This Riserva is made from hand-selected grapes and undergoes extended aging, allowing the wine to develop greater depth, texture, and complexity while still maintaining the hallmark freshness of Ribolla Gialla. The 2019 vintage is a standout, showcasing the potential of this indigenous variety to produce serious, age-worthy wines.

Appearance: Bright golden yellow with light amber reflections, indicating its extended aging and concentration.

Aroma: The nose is rich and layered, offering aromas of ripe citrus fruits like orange peel and lemon zest, along with stone fruits such as apricot and peach. There are subtle notes of honey, almond, and dried flowers, with an underlying minerality and a hint of spice from the oak aging, adding complexity and depth.

Taste: On the palate, this Ribolla Gialla is full-bodied with a creamy, smooth texture. Flavours of dried apricot, citrus, and baked apple are balanced by savory notes of toasted nuts, honey, and a touch of vanilla. The wine’s vibrant acidity keeps it lively and fresh, while the oak influence is well-integrated, contributing to its structure and complexity without overwhelming the fruit.

Finish: The finish is long and elegant, with lingering notes of citrus, dried fruit, and a subtle minerality, leaving a polished and refined aftertaste.

Food pairing: This Ribolla Gialla Riserva pairs wonderfully with richer dishes such as roasted chicken, grilled fish, or creamy risottos. It also complements aged cheeses like Pecorino or Parmigiano-Reggiano, and can hold up to more complex, flavorful dishes. Its depth and complexity make it ideal for both special occasions and sophisticated meals.
