Tasting Notes: Only about 1,000 bottles of this hand-harvested Malvasia are made from vineyards that sit a few hundred feet up from the Adriatic Sea atop jagged stone cliffs. The rugged and craggy earth makes for difficult growing conditions, but a stressed vine produces fruit with more character. The vines are arounf 50 years old. This skin-contact wine is fermented with the skins for 7 days in limestone vats without the use of commercial yeasts.
Estate History: Peter Radovic is the youngest winemaker in the Carso region along the Italian/Slovenian border. Having just passed the age of 30 he comes from a long lineage of farmers and winemakers. His family farms 7 acres of grapes his great-grandfather first planted more than 50 years ago. While his relatives focused on making simple "tavern" wines, Peter is looking to take the wines in a more serious direction, while still maintaining a fresh drinkability.
