Tasting Notes: The Ronchi di Cialla Ribolla Gialla shows a pale straw yellow color with fleeting green reflections in the glass. On the nose, it expresses freshness and enery; the aromas are elegant, with aromas of fresh baked bread, of apple orchards at dawn, ripe pears and pretty white flowers. One of the finest examples of the Ribolla Gialla grape you will find.
Estate History: The Ronchi di Cialla winery was founded by Dina and Paolo Rapuzzi in 1970. With the help of Bernardo Bruno, the mayor of Prepotto, the Rapuzzi's found a small plot of forgotten native Schioppettino vines. The Cialla estate took cuttings from the best shoots and cultivated a vineyard of 3,500 vines. The first vintage of their Schioppettino was released in 1977. Now, more than forty years later, Schioppettino has regained popularity, thanks in large part to the Cialla estate.
