Kabaj Goriška Brda Rebula - 2007 - 9.2 - James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

This wine a rebula with a cause is expressive; deeply golden in color -- a varietal that is found in neighbouring Italy and known as Ribolla Gialla. Very dry--low alcohol and high acid. A very nice example of Rebula and this is fermented with native yeast and has been held 3 years.

Dry; complex, highly differentiated from other white wines; while it's coloration might suggest a relationship to Chardonnay and yet it is orbitals away from that varietal. Notes of winter pear, yellow citrus, white tea, nutmeg, cardamom, hint of butterscotch and almond.
