Tasting Notes: Ribolla Gialla is an indigenous grape variety primarily found in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Northeastern Italy and in Slovenia. It's known for producing fresh and aromatic wines with high acidity. Perfect for sparkling wine. The palate is crisp, lively, and well-balanced with a refreshing acidity. You might notice flavors of lemon, green apple, white flowers, hint of yeast and freshly baked bread with a mineral finish. The bubbles are fine and persistent, giving it a smooth texture. 
 
The Estate: Cantine Bedin was established in the early 20th century by the Bedin family. The winery has been passed down through generations, maintaining its family-run heritage. They are situated in the heart of the Prosecco DOC region, specifically in the hills of Asolo, which is known for its ideal conditions for producing high-quality Prosecco. The winery emphasizes sustainable and environmentally-friendly viticulture practices. They focus on minimal intervention in the vineyard and the cellar to let the natural characteristics of the grapes shine through in the wine. While they uphold traditional winemaking techniques, they also incorporates modern technology to enhance the quality and consistency of their wines. The winery provides a charming setting with beautiful views, making it a delightful spot for both casual wine enthusiasts and serious connoisseurs. 
Ribolla Gialla Spumante is produced using the Charmat method (also known as the tank method), where the secondary fermentation occurs in large stainless steel tanks. This method preserves the fresh and fruity character of the grape. The wine undergoes a controlled fermentation at low temperatures to retain its aromatic profile.
