    2020 Monblanc, Castello di Buttrio

    £1995

    Alessandra Felluga produces stunning, modern and authentic wines from old vines on her beautiful estate.

    Monblanc is a judiciously gauged blend of native grape varieties, where Friulano’s austere structure, the acidity of Ribolla Gialla and the full-bodied minerality of Malvasia Istriana combine harmoniously.

    In the glass this refreshing blend has elegant floral overtones, layered with ripe citrus fruits surrounding a mineral core. The racy acidity balances the richly aromatic fruit through to a lipsmacking finish.

  • 2020 Ribolla Gialla, Castello di Buttrio White Wine

    2020 Ribolla Gialla, Castello di Buttrio

    £2250

    Alessandra Felluga produces stunning, modern and authentic wines from old vines on her beautiful estate.

    Ribolla Gialla is an ancient white variety from northern Italy that can be traced back to the 13th century and to the province of the Colli Orientali del Friuli.

    In the glass, this Ribolla Gialla is vibrant and characteristically fresh, offering marked minerality with complementing citrussy notes through to a stylish finish.

    The Castello di Buttrio vineyard is situated on the hillside slopes at 142 metres above sea level, which ensures excellent air circulation to keep the vines healthy. The Ribolla Gialla vines range from 10 to 60 years in age and are planted in soils that are made up of layers of marl and sandstone of Eocene origin, known locally as ‘ponca’ in Friulian, which contains marine fossils originating from the Adriatic Sea. This soil produces textured and concentrated wines which are balanced by cutting acidity, thanks to the soil’s high pH and cool temperature.

  • 2018 Ribolla Gialla, Benevolent Neglect White Wine

    2018 Ribolla Gialla, Benevolent Neglect

    £4100

    Ribolla Gialla is an ancient variety that originated in Greece and is mostly found in northeastern Italy and across the border in Slovenia, where it is known as Rebula.

    This California version is sourced from the Bengier Family Vineyard, a hidden gem inside of the Napa Valley’s nested ava Oak Knoll District. Fermented traditionally on skins for 15 days, this wine takes on a completely unique character for white wine. Due to its time on its skin and in the barrel it shows quite a bit of minerality, citrus skin with a core of tropical fruit with much in between.

    Tasting Note: Light, bright and fresh lemon sherbet draw the nose in followed by almond and acacia. On the palate, the wine is mineral, with slight notes of sour pear drop. The finish is long and refreshingly sour. This is a perfect oyster wine, match it with foods equally as bright, like a fresh arugula salad with a racy vinaigrette.
