Ribolla Gialla (2021)

Canus

  • Ribolla Gialla is an Italian native grape variety cultivated mainly in the hills of Friuli. In fact, it was in the hills of Gramogliano where modern-day Ribolla Gialla was cultivated from historic vines. It is here that the varietal is at home, and makes its purest expression.
