Ribolla Gialla Dario Princic 2018

The'Dario Princic winery is a gem set in the foothills of the mountains that mark the border with neighboring Slovenia, precisely we are in Oslavia . This delightful family-run winery was one of the initiators of orange wines in Italy. It has been farming biodynamically since 1988 when it sold its grapes to local producers. Then deciding to make a U-turn and start his own production, Dario founded his winery in 1993 , the year he bottled his first wines . All his whites undergo a long pellicular maceration , ferment in open vats and age in used Slovenian barrels resulting in super complex , intense , flavorful and deep wines. Dario Princic immediately becomes one of the points of reference in Collio for the production of very traditional white wines, macerated on the skins, setting himself in the oenological panorama of the territory as a very talented winemaker, a craftsman of wine. 7 hectares of vineyards, on hilly limestone and clay soils, from which he makes no more than 26,000 bottles a year. So a small production of high quality, characterized by a unique style like no other. The vines are raised organically, with copper and sulfur, without any use of synthetic chemicals, and favoring low yields per hectare. Wines of great territorial expressiveness often described as "moving."
