Forchir Ribolla Gialla Spumante Brut, Fruili DOC

Description

Prosecco isn’t the only fizz that hails from Italy’s north east. Made from the local grape variety Ribolla Gialla, this sparkling wine comes from ancient Friulian grapes, cultivated since the Roman times. This indigenous Friulian grape variety has seen its fame increasingly expanding outside of the region, and now it’s the best known and most appreciated wine of its kind. The versatility of this grape really excels in sparkling wine, producing one with bubbles that are fine and persistent. With floral and fruity aromas, this sparkling wine is wonderfully fresh and savoury, with a thirst-quenching minerality. Great as an aperitif, this is also a great match for prosciutto or even fish dinners.
