Ribolla Gialla IGT - Branko is born in the lands rich in history and tradition of Friuli Venezia Giulia, a region known for its unique terroirs that impart great elegance to the organoleptic characteristics of the grape varieties. This white wine enhances the Ribolla Gialla grape, native and symbolic of the area, highlighting its freshness and extraordinary aromatic finesse. In the glass, it appears with a bright straw yellow color, accompanied by delicate scents of white flowers and white-fleshed fruits, such as apple and peach. The sip is fresh and lively, with a gustatory harmony that balances mineral sapidity with enveloping softness. Branko carefully refines this Ribolla, maintaining the varietal characteristics and the sense of the territory from which it comes, ideal to accompany fish dishes and light appetizers, also perfectly pairing with the most refined Mediterranean cuisine.

Winery history
The Čotar family's winemaking activity has local roots: Branko began making wine for his own osmiza and, starting from small vineyards in Gorjansko, progressively built a cellar carved into the Carso. In the following years his son Vasja joined the project, and the family business consolidated as a local reference for authentic Carso wines; the transition from informal sales to structured bottling is documented in online sources around the late 1980s/early 1990s.
Production philosophy
Winemaking focused on minimal intervention: spontaneous fermentations in barrels of varying sizes, extended macerations depending on the vintage, prolonged aging in wood and no filtration; limited use of additives.
Terroir and vineyards
Carso, close to the Italian border; vineyards on soils influenced by terra rossa with the calcareous subsoil typical of the Karst.
