The wine region of Istra
Istrian peninsula on the Adriatic, Croatia's smallest wine region but one of its most renowned. Signature Malvazija Istarska (50-70%): expressive, lively whites with notes of acacia, green apple, citrus, fresh almond and marked saline minerality - a perfect match with seafood. Native Teran in tannic, tangy red (blackberry, blood, earth), a unique profile. Also dense Refošk, round Merlot.
The word of the wine: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
