Description

Discover the captivating world of Dario Princic Ribolla Gialla, an orange wine that captures the wild spirit of Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. Hailing from the renowned Collio area, where marly and sandstone-rich soils shape every vintage, this bottling stands as a testament to hands-off winemaking traditions. Dario Princic, a revered figure among natural wine enthusiasts, championed a minimalist philosophy alongside pioneers like Stanko Radikon and Josko Gravner, letting the land dictate the rhythm in both vineyard and cellar.

From vines yielding just 40 hectoliters per hectare, this Ribolla Gialla emerges through spontaneous fermentation in open wooden vats, followed by an extended 35-day maceration on the skins. A whisper of sulphur dioxide preserves its purity, resulting in a wine that pulses with vitality. Pour a glass and let layers unfold: whispers of sweet spices mingle with the chew of dried fruit, a smear of apricot jam, fresh herbaceous lifts, and that intriguing hint of kerosene on the finish.

At 12% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, it's versatile enough for contemplative solo sipping or lively gatherings. Picture it alongside grilled vegetables, aged cheeses, or bold seafood dishes, where its textured orange hue bridges worlds between white and red. This isn't just wine; it's a journey into Collio's soul, bottled for those who seek depth over flash.

Dario Princic Ribolla Gialla invites you to experience the raw elegance of skin-contact whites. With its dry profile and emblematic character, it rewards patience and curiosity. Secure your bottle today and elevate your collection with a piece of Friuli's living history—perfect for collectors, adventurers, and anyone chasing authentic Italian expressions.
