Tasting- "Villa Vitas Ribolla Gialla 2014"

Name: Villa Vitas Ribolla Gialla 2014
Variety: Ribolla Gialla
Region: Venezie
Country: Italy
Year: 2014
Price: Regular $18, Sale $6.95

Winery Review: 87 Points – Robert Parker
The 2014 Ribolla Gialla shows more minerality, nice quince, white currant and citrus oil notes, a dry, refreshing mouthfeel and a fragrant bouquet.


My Review: This white wine had a very floral and sweet fruit aroma, with hints of pears and kiwis.  The wine was very crisp with a sweet finish.  The wine was slightly dry, and had components of apples and flowers.  A sharp sour twist of kiwi added complexity.  I liked this wine very much and would like to pair it with a light meal, with either fish or chicken.
