Bastianich Ribolla Gialla D.O.C

The Finer Details

What does our Somm say?

This Ribolla Gialla D.O.C from Bastianich is a dream for food pairing due to it’s versatility.

 

A high acidity makes it suitable for many different dishes where palate cleansing is needed: excellent with a buttery fish dish, risotto with seafood, with fried vegetables or fish and chips.

 

I’ve enjoyed this with a simple but high quality brie cheese on cranberry crackers and thoroughly enjoyed it as an Aperitivo. It’s even been tried and adored alongside ‘sweet and sour’ oriental dishes such as fried pork or tofu dishes and delicious casual foods like crispy pork Banh Mi (Vietnamese rolls) with fresh chilli.

 

Whichever context you enjoy your Ribolla Gialla in, just make sure you’re chilling it to the correct temperature to really enhance its fruity and fresh profile.

The Winery

Founded in 1997, the Bastianich winery, then formed solely of the Buttrio vineyards, marked the owner’s return to their origins, and a reappropriation of their territorial identity. An immigrant in the United States as a child, Lidia, and her son Joe, born in the U. S., lived their lives and realized their careers in the United States.

 

Despite the distance and the difficulties of the global markets, the company has forged ahead, making the very high quality of its wines and their image a valuable calling card and a consistent standard-bearer in the wine world. Many, in fact, are the awards by guides, magazines and sectoral tasters.

 

Mother and son, famous for their eclectic world-view, are not just restaurateurs, television personalities and authors, but also lovers of wine and good-living in general. Their foresight has also allowed them to continually enlarge the scope of their passions and skills. The results are obvious to anyone familiar with their endeavours.

 

The Bastianich winery brand is bound to the family name, which has become synonymous with the development and realization of various projects, all of which are renowned for their quality, and their respect for culture and tradition. These endeavours are not only successful in terms of business, but also for the support and growth of their immediate neighbourhoods, their employees, and the promotion of the culture of Italian wine and food.
