About this wine
Vinification
The grapes are harvested relatively late, at the end of September. They undergo six hours of maceration at 13 °C, followed by fermentation in stainless-steel vats for approximately 15 days at no more than 15 °C.
Ageing
The wine matures on its lees until the following spring.
Label / history
The name Benedete honours the centuries-old history of Ribolla Gialla, an ancient variety originating in the eastern hills of Friuli. Benedictine monks from Rosazzo Abbey once cultivated it and helped introduce the vine to Colli Orientali, Collio and Brda, also known as Slovenian Collio.
The 2023 vintage received a bronze medal at the 2024 International Wine & Spirit Competition.
