2023 I Clivi Ribolla Gialla Brut nOmi

This sparkling white wine is crafted from indigenous Ribolla Gialla—with select blends incorporating Pinot Noir (direct pressed and vinified as white wine)—using strictly controlled, low-intervention techniques. Production involves either a single-step fermentation in steel tanks or secondary fermentation in sealed tanks to build pressure, with some wines employing the ptillant method. Fermentation is performed on native yeasts, and low-pressure pressing is used to extract only the flowering must. Aging on fine lees, lasting from three to eight months, is employed to enhance the wine’s toasty character while preserving its bone dry profile (residual sugar approximately 1.6–2 g/L). Harvests from hand-picked, up to 10-year-old vines—further influenced by Friuli’s clay soils—underscore the expression of terroir and meticulous vineyard management.
