The name is a wordplay on \"ripasso\" and \"pazzo\" (Italian for crazy), pointing to its unconventional origin: in its first vintage, a batch that stalled in fermentation was re-started by passing it over the skins of the next harvest's Litrozzo Bianco grapes. The 2019 is fermented dry with native yeasts on the skins, then aged in old oak barrels. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, with no added sulfites.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProcanico is the local name for Trebbiano Toscano and forms the structural backbone of this blend. Roscetto is an ancient indigenous variety nearly extinct outside northern Lazio. The vineyards sit at approximately 450 to 600 meters elevation in Gradoli, where tuffaceous volcanic soils derived from ancient caldera activity deliver pronounced mineral grip and low natural yields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a deep, amber-orange wine with mouth-watering acidity, notable tannic texture from skin contact, and a long dry herbal finish. Notes of orange peel, apricot, melon, and earth run through the palate. The finish carries a saline, mineral edge characteristic of the Lake Bolsena terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Coste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35061380382872,"sku":"LECORIBI19C","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/le-coste-bianco-orange-lazio-italy-natural-wine-primal-wine.jpg?v=1630818183","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/ripazzo-bianco-le-coste-di-gradoli-lazio-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
