Ribolla Gialla is the king of grapes, a white grape with piercing acidity, that seems to concentrate all of the plants energy into a lean, powerful wine that is built to age. In the Radikon fashion, this was fermented on skins for four months and aged in old casks for four years. The sheer amount of structure and lingering acidity on display here suggests that this is a wine that will continue to wow for many years to come.
Radikon
Stanko Radikon was one of the natural wine world’s true icons and his legendary work in the Oslavia region of Friuli, right by the border with Slovenia in Italy’s northeast is now being carried on by his son Sasa. The wines benefit from what a soil type the Slovenian’s call ‘Ponca’, a complex mix of sandstone, clay and marine deposits that produces powerful, mineral rich wines. With long macerations and time ageing in old oak casks, they produce wines of rare intensity.
