11% skin contact ribolla from mathiasson. Textured. Medium body. Acid surprisingly lacking. But still enjoyable, just less than I was hoping. — 8 months ago

Fun orange wine, 41/37/9/8/5 blend of Chenin Blanc, Pinot Gris, Albariño, Verdelho and Riesling. Looks like cherry skin-colored Rosé with excellent clarity, but these are all white varietals. Complex smear of flavors with a light tannin finish. Don’t think I’ve had anything like it, though that hint of Riesling is the bow on the package. Experimental and lovely. I admire its structure, almost dry, balanced but tannin-forward without excess, — 3 years ago

This variety – Nosiola – is an ancient, regional specialty of Trentino-Alto Adige in Northern Italy, known for its distinctive hazelnut aromas that occur naturally, not from long-term oak or bottle aging (which can also contribute nuttiness in white wines). In Italian, “nocciola” means hazelnut, a clear etymological link.

After learning about this unique variety, we had to track down a wine made from it. When we discovered that Azienda Agricola Foradori makes a single variety expression, we were sold!!

This wine was made biodynamically, with ancient practices in the winery, including 8 months of skin contact in clay amphorae. The resulting wine is alive, awakening as it breathes, and evolving from sip to sip.

It first opened with notes of lemongrass, lemon verbena, fresh mint and basil, and delicate white pepper. As it evolved, it took on notes of geranium, white blossom, honeydew, grapefruit pith, elderberry, and wet stones. With even more time, I detected some of that hazelnut character, although, admittedly, it could have been the power of suggestion leading me there…

One thing is for certain: it’s delicious, layered, and like nothing we’ve tasted before. — 6 months ago

How much skin contact did this wine have? The taste is fresh and tart, no sign of oxidation other than the color. Tolerable acidity, abv 12.5%. Good food wine — 3 years ago

Very nice, especially for the price. Quite transparent in the glass - perhaps the 19 sees a bit less skin contact than previous vintages. Tasty and a nice pairing with Chinese delivery! — 3 years ago

2022. A Foradori skin contact white that I haven’t tried… yes, we are having two wines with dinner tonight! The floral aromas and rich mouthfeel paired great with the richer sauces on the grilled turbot and octopus dishes. So fun to have two different great wines to compare and contrast. — 8 months ago

Had to capture the contrast between the cobalt blue sky and the lava lamp neon orange skin fermented wine. Reminiscent of a Jules Verne novel.

Oranges and apricots in the bouquet blend with honey bee pollen aromas.

Sips of this are sun kisses showering down from the skies as rays of refreshing , thirst quenching flavor.

Clementine surf on a spindrift of apricots cresting into a thyme undercurrent.

Despite having a considerable amount of sediment, which I allowed to diffuse into the elixir, I couldn’t detect much of the funky notes they warn you of. Just rounded out sips of pleasure and satisfaction.

Simply, simply love this. — 4 years ago
