Colli Orientali Del Friuli, Udine, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
The Meursault of Friuli. Macadamia, cocoa butter, the barest hint of chervil. Subtly but persistently saline. Lacks a touch of acidity, or I’d have been even more wowed. For me, this is the best findable and affordable Italian white in most vintages.

Fresh meadow, stonefruit going into light tropicals.
Medium acidity. Nice, not out of balance. Ripe stonefruit, peaches, light lychee. Brisk minerality.
Pretty vintage. Have a ‘99 that’ll be fun to compare to

Last bottle we had in the shop. Sat in the last bottle bin for weeks. Finally took it home and it was singing.
Great acidity, tart fruit and tons of minerality

I keep trying but I’m not sure outside of Gravner / Mathiasson I’ve had too many ribollas that I really enjoy. This is good - crispy with great acidity and salinity. But leaves something to be desired.
