Tasting Notes:
- Colour: Baby 2024 boasts a captivating golden yellow hue, and due to its unfiltered nature, it possesses a slight haze.
- Aroma: On the nose, expect pronounced notes of highly ripe citrus, pear peel, and delicate herbal hints, particularly lemon grass and sage.
- Taste: The palate delivers a continuation of ripe pear peel and citrus notes, joined by juicy red grapefruit and a distinctive saline minerality that adds depth. The texture is moderately buttery, a result of maturing on fine lees. The well-expressed and juicy acids are characteristic of the Istrian region. The finish is fairly long, leaving a pleasantly fruity aftertaste. In the background, subtle yeast aromas emerge, a characteristic that tends to appear in the initial phase of macerated white wines without the addition of sulfur and gradually fades after a few months.

Baby Orange 2024 is a versatile companion, pairing exceptionally well with shrimp, scampi, fermented cheese, herbs, and fennel. Its vibrant acidity and complex flavor profile make it a delightful choice for various occasions.
