Terroir and Winemaking
Produced in the heart of Friuli, the Ribolla Gialla 2022 by La Roncaia is the result of careful, territory-conscious viticulture. The grapes come from vineyards planted on marl and sandstone-rich soils typical of the Friulian hills, which lend the wine its distinctive minerality.
The winemaking process involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve the freshness and primary aromas of the grape variety. This is followed by brief aging on fine lees, which enhances complexity and structure while maintaining its natural vibrancy. The wine is further aged in the bottle for 12 months before release.

The Ribolla Gialla 2022 is an extremely versatile wine, making it a perfect match for:
- Fish and shellfish appetizers.
- Vegetable-based dishes, such as asparagus or herb risottos.
