Ronchi di Cialla 1999 Cialla Bianco White (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $44
Brought to us from the distant 1999 vintage, Cialla Bianco (a blend of Ribolla Gialla, Verduzzo and Picolit) demonstrates that white wines from Northeast Italy can age. The wine delivers aromas of sweet orange, candied fruit, caramel and butterscotch. It’s creamy and sweet tasting too.  — M.L.  (8/1/2009)

Ronchi di Cialla 2008 Cialla Picolit (Colli Orientali del Friuli)
  1. $75
Picolit is a rare and precious dessert wine that shows aromas of candied fruit, pressed flower and honey. This expression has a touch of bitter almond on the finish.  — M.L.  (12/1/2012)

Ronchi di Cialla 2007 Cialla Bianco White (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $25
There’s a slightly bitter or sour note here on top of candied fruit, banana and white almond. That said, the wine delivers satisfying density and texture in the mouth—it is creamy and soft without being flat or dull. The blend is Ribolla Gialla, Verduzzo and Picolit.  — M.L.  (8/1/2009)

Ronchi di Cialla 2007 Ribolla Gialla (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $16
This is a neutral and composed expression of Ribolla Gialla with a sharp mineral vein and limited aromas of apricot and melon. The wine is light and compact with a zippy, crisp close. Even the color is a shade lighter than your standard Ribolla Gialla.  — M.L.  (8/1/2009)

Ronchi di Cialla 2006 Cialla Picolit (Colli Orientali del Friuli)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $85
Cialla Picolit performs well save for the bitter flavors on the close that slightly disturb an otherwise pretty picture. The wine offers aromas of soapy flower or potpourri with dried fruits and almond skin. The finish is sweet with contrasting sensations of sourness and bitterness.  — M.L.  (12/15/2009)
