Our classic Blaufränkisch, fresh, vibrant and very juicy as we used to craft it for many years, just adding a touch of modernity to soften the natural energy of this beautiful variety.
Dolg opis
Grapes from three different vineyards are sourced to produce this elegant, round, fruity and fresh Blaufränkisch. Grapes from marly Plešivica bring complexity, ripeness, spiciness and depth. The second vineyard (Lokvica) provides nice acidity and the youngest vineyard (Doma) brings generosity of red and dark fruits. The nose of this 2018 vintage offers a complex mix of blueberry, blackberry with a hint of typical peppery character. The palate is medium bodied, juicy, fleshy and fruity supported by gentle tannins. Drink between 2019 and 2024.
Grapes were hand harvested in 15 kg crates, fermented for 10 days on skins before pressing and undergoing malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tank. The wine was thereafter aged in 4 to 5 years old barrique barrels and traditional big 1500 l oval casks for a year. Wine is not filtered or fined.
