50% Cabernet Sauvignon & 50% Merlot from Goriška Brda, Slovenia

Organic, hand harvested, naturally fermented using indigenous yeasts.

Hand-harvested Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon come into the cellar and begin a natural fermentation in stainless steel, but are only with the skins for two days before a gentle pressing, making for a lightly extracted red wine that is more focused on the fruit instead of the tannin and structure. The result is absolutely delightful to drink, vibrant and expressive on the nose with aromas of spice, black cherry, and strawberry. The palate echoes the fun and fresh aromas, with the fruit and acidity dancing in the mouth, leaning it towards the ‘chillable red’ category of wine. A wonderful red to share as an aperitif, or to pair with foods fresh off the grill.
