"The 2020 Ribolla Gialla delle Mura Zuc di Volpe wafts up with a pretty mix of sweet melon, spring flowers and crushed rocks. It’s silky in feel with a reverberation of green citrus tension to balance, as tart orchard fruits are propelled by zesty acidity. A salty flourish resonates, as the mouth is left watering for more, leaving notes of lemon oil and flint to linger incredibly long. The 2020 Ribolla Gialla needs a little time to fully develop its aromatics, but it will be worth waiting for. There’s so much depth and character beneath the surface." Vinous

"The 2019 Pinot Bianco Zuc di Volpe leads off with a smoky display, as crushed stone gives way to musky apples, pears and nuances of zested lime. The textures are smooth and soothing, yet this remains feminine and lifted throughout, leaning more on salty, savory characteristics than fruit. The 2019 Pinot Bianco tapers off crisp, clean and wonderfully fresh." Vinous
