Gravner Ribolla “Anfora” 2006 Venezia Giulia IGT

Grape:Ribolla Gialla
Vintage: 2006
Type: Orange

A perfect year characterized by dry weather and very robust and healthy grapes without noble rot. Last day of harvesting: Saturday, 14 October. Made from Ribolla grapes which have been cultivated in this area for more than a thousand years. While fermenting in Georgian amphorae buried underground, it underwent a long maceration with wild yeasts and no temperature control. After the drawing off and pressing phases the wine was poured back into amphorae for at least five more months before it started ageing in large oak barrels, where it was left for five years.
