Harvested in October 2016 from our sun-soaked southwestern vineyards near the village of Manžan, this vintage represents an exceptional year for our Refošk grapes. Opting for an extended ripening period on the vine, some grapes began to naturally dry, enriching the wine with concentrated extracts. Undergoing spontaneous fermentation with uncontrolled temperature, the wine was macerated for 30 days, creating a unique profile. Following a brief period of distress, it rested in an stainless steel container on small branches for 2 years before maturing an additional 2 years in oak barrique.
Tasting Notes:
- Color: The wine presents an intensive ruby, black color with a subtle purple shade.
- Aroma: Reminiscent of blackberry, blueberry, and ripe sour cherry, beautifully intertwined with the gentle, ripe aroma of wood.
- Taste: This Refošk is full and soft, offering a pleasantly playful character with fruity yet non-aggressive acids. An elegant wine with a medium-long finish, expressing delightful notes of sour cherries and velvety tannins.
Food and Wine Pairing Recommendation:
Refošk is a versatile wine, making it a delightful addition to tables featuring cold cured meat products, red meat, slaughter meat, and grilled dishes. Thanks to its pleasant acidity, it also pairs beautifully with pizza.
Serving Temperature:
For an optimal tasting experience, serve this Refošk between 15–18 °C.
