Signature Graševina as white king (22% of national vineyard): taut and slightly aromatic with notes of green apple, citrus, pear, almond, white flowers and honeyed touch, dry thirst-quenching palate. Floral Traminac, ample Chardonnay.
The word of the wine: Bâtonnage
A very old technique that has come back into fashion in modern oenology, which consists of shaking the white wine in the barrels at the end of fermentation, or after fermentation, with a stick or a flail, in order to suspend the fine lees composed of yeasts at the end of their activity. This process is sometimes used for red wines.
