Gravner Ribolla Gialla 2012

Here is one amber wine to change even the most hardened classicist’s mind, the friend who can’t get beyond white burgundy and thinks anything amber must be related to Lucozade. The 2012 Ribolla Gialla from Gravner is the wine which truly expands one’s horizons. Beautiful scented complex floral nose, rich intense powerful palate of firm fresh clementines and white stone fruit, full bodied but with a delicious saline note. Complex and intriguing and a wine I would be happy to serve to any doubter that there are amber wines which stand up with the great wines of the world. 14%
