James Suckling, 92 Points 

"Blanched almonds, herbs, tile and poached pears to the nose. Nice purity and crunch on the full-bodied, structured palate. Elegant, but less intense than the white label from 2020. Saline and nicely tannic finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Movia Rebula Ribolla shows an extractive, golden yellow color with an amber hue and a dense texture. The bouquet evokes ripe red apple, apricot, yellow fig, yellow plum, orange peel, papaya, star fruit and yellow rose. Note of herbs reveals rosemary, anise, finishing with notes of almonds, hazelnuts and toffee. The palate feels soft, and the alcohol nicely underlays its structure. Its freshness is crisp and well balanced by the softness of the wine. The mouthfeel is balanced. A Rebula with an intense taste, fuller body and lasting, elegant persistency. It becomes more elegant with age." 

Alcohol: 13.5%
