Malvazija

The vines are located in the Karst near Gorjansko, a few kilometres from the sea; the mineral Karst soils and the local winds are described as defining influences. The wine underwent five days of skin contact, spontaneous fermentation and, after fermentation, around 18 months’ maturation on the fine lees in used oak barrels. It shows ripe apricot, orange peel, meadow flowers, yellow apple, pear and white peach. Juicy acidity, pronounced minerality, elegant tannins and a long, fruit-driven and mineral finish define the style. Source: O Vinu/Finance, DrinkSloWine.
