Gravner Ribolla Gialla Friuli-Venezia Giulia 2016To call this wine merely geeky undersells it entirely. It is a profound, powerful, and vividly energetic expression from Friuli Venezia Giulia, one of the regions at the forefront of the modern skin contact wine revival. Thoughtfully crafted and aged for many years before release, it is both rare and uncompromising, going for $175 retail normally, but now UNDER $115 a considerable steal for something so remarkably unique and rare.
