Blazic Ribolla Gialla
About the Producer:
Blazic Wine Estate was founded in 1923, and it is a family-run winery located in the heart of the hills of Cormòns, in Zegla. Its location, the Collio Hills, lies halfway between the Adriatic Sea and the Julian Alps. Cutting-edge techniques and strict respect for the environment make all the magic of fruit aromas and flavors, and the original nature of the vineyards of Zegla and Via Delle Vigne give their best to the Blazic family wines. The climate is mild with temperatures moderated by the sea and protected from winds and storms by the mountains. Soil mainly consisting of stratified Eocene marl and sandstone, is the cradle upon which the Blazic Family tend to their vines with expertise and passion.
About the Wine:
Vines are grown on Marl and sandstone soil, cultivated using the guyot training system. Manually harvested in the third quarter of September. Vinification starts with maceration on the skins at room temperature, 50% of the mass for 2 weeks and the remaining 50% for 3 days, followed by spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. Aged 7 months in concrete tanks and 2 months in bottles.
Organoleptic Notes:
Intense straw yellow with a wide and intriguing bouquet. Very pleasant and balanced on the palate, strong minerality and persistent acidity, various fruity nuances and the presence of flowers and yellow fruit.
Pairing: Raw fish, crustaceans, oysters, seafood and fried fish.
