Descrizione

Ribona Metodo Classico by Fontezoppa is an elegant sparkling wine produced in the renowned Friulian region, famous for its extraordinary winemaking vocation. Made with Ribona grapes, an indigenous white grape variety, this metodo classico expresses all the freshness and minerality typical of the hilly production area. The secondary fermentation in the bottle gives this wine fine and persistent bubbles, accompanied by a delicate and settled perlage.

On the nose, it opens with fragrant aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and light notes of bread crust due to the aging on the lees. On the palate, it is balanced and vibrant, with good structure and a clean finish that invites the next sip.

Perfect as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes, shellfish, and delicate appetizers, Ribona Metodo Classico Fontezoppa represents a refined expression of Friulian sparkling wine artistry.

Winery history

According to company sources and informational materials, Fontezoppa was established in the late 1990s to showcase the vineyards of the hills between sea and mountains. Ownership and management are tied to the Luzi family; the business has developed by combining native varieties and international cultivars, with an approach that also encompasses wine tourism experiences.

Production philosophy

The estate places its relationship with the land at the center: site-specific viticultural practices, winemaking that seeks to express the characteristics of each grape variety, and an approach focused on quality, hospitality and sustainable practices, with projects to convert to organic farming reported in the sources.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located between Civitanova Alta and the area of Serrapetrona, in the Marche hinterland between the Adriatic coast and the Monti Azzurri. The soils are described as having a calcarenitic/sandy-calcareous matrix; altitudes and microclimate vary between the coastal hills and the mountain slopes where Vernaccia Nera is traditionally grown.
