Origin
Kras, Primorska, Slovenia

The grapes come from the Slovenian Karst, whose red Terra rossa soils and sea-influenced winds shape the vineyard site. Alcoholic fermentation takes place spontaneously in the underground cellar in 200- to 2000-litre casks. The wine remains on the lees without added sulphites until the first racking, then matures for at least two years in used oak casks. Unfiltered, it shows aromas of peach, apricot, raisins and yeast. On the palate it is dry, fresh and high in acidity, with a light body, fine bubbles and a long, clear finish.
