Description

CLASSIFICATION: Quality wine with attribute Selection of grapes, wine a protected designation of origin D.S.C., white, dry

VARIETY: Pinot Gris

TASTE AND SENSORY ATTRIBUTES: 
Lively yellow-greenish color hue with golden sparkle. The wine will catch your attention with a multi-layered palette of tropical fruits aroma with a hint of yellow melon, cloves and sage. As the wine opens, these aromas are supplemented with freshly picked gooseberry and peaches, well evidenced by full taste upon swallowing. Palate is harmonious and at the same time very fresh and juicy thanks to the acids and gentle residual sugar that does not leave a sweet trace but rather rounds the final overall impression of the wine instead. Aftertaste finishes with delicious citrus-peach impression.

MEAL SUGGESTION:
Mushroom risotto with dried tomatoes; butter fish with fresh crusty salad; steamed or baked poultry with lighter vegetable side dishes; mature goat cheese

WINE SERVING: Served at 9-10°C in white wine goblets with a volume of 300-370 ml

WINEMAKERS´S DIARY:
Harvesting for this beautiful wine started on 21.9.2015 in vineyard Zoya with sugar content of 23,5°NM, which responds to quality attribute Selection of grapes. After pressing, grapes went through reductive and fast fermentation at the temperature 18°C in order to achieve elegant, fruity bouquet. Part of the wine was then left to mature on gentle yiests for 3 months in oak barrels and then both parts were combined resulting in this full and persistent wine with 6,5 g/l acid content and 3,8g/l residual sugar.
