RIBOLLA GIALLA "COL DE BLISS" LA TUNELLA 2017
The "Col de Bliss" La Tunella originates from vineyards where the vines grow with the Friulian short single inverted system. The manual harvest takes place during the third week of September, when the grapes reach the right degree of ripeness. As soon as the grapes reach the cellar, a cryomaceration lasting 36 hours is carried out, followed by a soft pressing. The must then carries out a cold static decantation and is subsequently added with a fermentation foot previously prepared with the best selected grapes. The "Col de Bliss" of La Tunella is a pure Ribolla Gialla typical of Friuli characterized by lively and intense accents, thanks to a long aging in barrels. The nose is animated by exotic and citrus veins, with passion fruit, pineapple, grapefruit and ginger, interspersed with mineral puffs. In the mouth it is fresh and savory, with good balance and persistence
