Ribolla Cru Selection
2014
Wine description
Yellow, straw-coloured, with a shade of gold. A complex bouquet, with a fragrant hint of ripe citrus, dried fruit, cedar, buttered toast. Its softness and warmth are pleasantly combined with the chewy structure of a red wine. Long-lasting aftertaste. Mineral and very drinkable wine.
With food
Meat or soup as starters; main dishes with truffles; grilled fish; poultry; and cooked meats.
Aging
Suitable for drinking, with an excellent ageing potential, at least ten years.

Cru Selection
Cru Selection wines have a very rich colour, an extraordinary beautiful body, which reflects the characteristic mineral note. These non-filtered wines are also extremely persistent.
