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: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
