The wine region of Primorje
Coastal region of western Slovenia, the country's most qualitative, bordering Italy. Signature elegant whites and orange wines. Star Rebula (Ribolla Gialla) with signature notes of pear, citrus, white flowers, fresh almond and a mineral touch, taut and long palate — often in long maceration (orange) with dried fruits and black tea notes. Native Refošk as dense, lively red (black cherry, iron).
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
