Miani – Ribolla Gialla Pettarin – 2019

One of the most sensational vines of the Friulian panorama, presented in the best possible way, Ribolla Gialla has had a real revival in the last decades thanks to its rich scents and good aging capacity given by its discreet acidity. The vineyard called Pettarin is located next to Buttrio, where Ponca’s soils and very granular soils give very mineral wines. Grapes are lightly pressed for 2 hours and then fermented in French oak barriques ⅔ used with the use of indigenous and selected yeasts and then aged in the same barriques for 9-11 months according to the vintage. A real ambassador among Friuli’s wines, fruity and vegetal aromas in a continuous alternation, it has a good body in the whole made more intense thanks to the use of wood which ends up in a sapid and wrapping texture.

Description

“Cultore della pianta” and “Senso del Terroir” (Sense of Terroir) are the values on which Enzo Pontoni’s life as a viticulturist is based, an established icon in Friuli and a giant of Italian enology, they brought Miani winery straight to worldwide success. An experience of 35 years matured since he was a child in the small village of Buttrio, helping his grandfather and his father in the vineyards and increasing a deep and reserved bond with his land which will shape his character. He studied for passion as an autodidact the most important enological regions of the world (Burgundy above all) acquiring notions and styles which will lead him to the production of his first label in 1981. In 20 hectares of vineyards on the eastern hills of Friuli, rich in Ponca, he cultivates local grapes such as Friulano, Malvasia, Ribolla and Refosco as well as allochthonous grapes such as Sauvignon and Chardonnay by adopting the technique of Sovescio (green manure) which consists in fertilizing the soil with natural organic substances, all different compounds according to the grape variety. His philosophy is meticulous, low yields with two bunches per plant from which he gets not even 10 hectoliters per hectare, perfect phenolic maturation and mixed vines in every vineyard in order to increase the complexity of each one exalting hidden qualities. Vinifications are precise and separate, a very limited production of not even 10,000 bottles where there is absolutely no use of steel but only barriques and tonneaux (80% used) both for white and red wines in order to guarantee longevity and evolution out of the ordinary. The very high demand in the market have made it an unfailing name in the collections of the most passionate wine lovers.
