More about this product

Damijan

The Damijan family winery is located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. The most important vineyards of the winery, as well as the small plots scattered in Collio, are located on the forested slopes of Mount Calvario, near Gorizia, in a pristine environment that is ideal for growing healthy grapes with rich taste. Its owner, Damjan Podversic, is a student of Josko Gravner. In 2019, Damian Podversic received the Premio Nonino Risit D’aur Barbatella D’oro for his passion for growing Ribolla gialla - the ancient variety of Friuli Venezia Giulia and the process of restoring abandoned lands suitable for viticulture. Damijan wine can be found in all elite restaurants in Europe, Asia and the USA. Damijan wines are bio-certified, but this is not noted on the bottles - "Certification just stops people from thinking," says the producer - & quot; to understand what is good, you do not need to see it. You just have to feel it and taste it.

Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Friuli - Venezia Giulia, a region in northeastern Italy, borders Austria to the north, Slovenia to the east, the Adriatic Sea to the south, and the Veneto region to the west. It has an area of 3,030 square miles (7,847 square kilometers), covering the provinces of Udine, Pordenone, Gorizia, and Trieste. To the north, the dense wall of the Carnic Alps, broken only by the Monte Croce (Plöcken) pass and the low saddle of Tarvisio, forms an impressive backdrop to the valley of the Tagliamento River, the heart of Friuli. The southern part of the region is a low coastal plain, part of which is occupied by the shallow lagoons of Grado and Caorle. To the southeast, this part of the former Free Territory of Trieste, which is now an integral part of Italy, extends like a narrow corridor between the limestone plateau of Carso (Kras) and the Adriatic Sea, all the way to the city of Trieste. The region varies in terrain from rocky uplands and foothills in the north to dry or marshy lowlands in the south. The precipitation in the north - the highest in Italy - favors the development of natural pastures for livestock, and the ham and dairy products in Friuli are well-known. Now, as Italian winemakers south and west of Friuli have also mastered the art of making fresh, fruity white wines, particularly those from Alto Adige, their colleagues in Collio and Colli Orientali must try to justify their price premium, usually, but not necessarily, with greater use of small oak barrels. The standard of winemaking here is generally very high and yields are relatively low, even if the price for this is that the wines can have remarkably similar tastes.

Ribolla Gialla

Рибола Джала е древен сорт грозде, който произхожда от региона Фриули-Венеция Джулия и се отглежда още от римско време в района, където се намира, а именно на хълмовете около Розацо. В Словения и Хърватия той е известен като Ребула, а произходът му се смята, че е от южните острови на Далмация или още по на юг, чак до Кефалония, откъдето някои смятат, че е внесен във Фриули от венециански търговци в по-ново време, около 1100 г. Районът, в който се намира, обаче, е хълмистият район между Удине и Гориция, където се намират наименованията Isonzo, Collio и Friuli Colli orientali DOC, както и Rosazzo DOCG. Отлични резултати дава и „Rebula“ от Collio Sloveno. Лозата Рибола Джала никога не се е разпространявала в равнините, а предпочита сухите хълмисти терени, където дава интензивни и структурирани вина. Гроздовете на Рибола Джала са малки, цилиндрично-пирамидални и средно компактни. Гроздовете им са средно големи, леко сплескани по полюсите (дисковидни), с пруинозна, алабастровожълта ципа. Месестата част е с неутрален вкус, сладка и леко стипчива. Винифицирано като бяло вино, се получава свежо вино с постоянно жива киселинност, деликатен вкус и характерен плодов аромат. Виното е с бледожълт-сламеножълт цвят със зеленикави отблясъци, със сух, свеж и приятно парфюмиран вкус, богат на киселини и като цяло хармоничен. Идеално е за аперитив или в съчетание с ястия от сладководни и морски дарове, зеленчукови баници и полуотлежали сирена.
