Santomas Malvazija 2021

A special Malvazija

Hand-picked from the beautifully situated vineyards of the Santomas winery high above the coastal town of Koper, the grapes are stored in a cool place after harvesting to prevent oxidation. Only the healthiest and best grapes are pressed and cold macerated for an hour. Most of the clarified must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks, with about 10% fermented in used French oak barrels. It matures on the yeast for four months without the addition of sulfur.

In the glass, a radiant light golden yellow. In the nose, floral aromas of white and yellow flowers, tropical fruits and pome fruits. In the mouth, very engaging and intense, not too strong, combined with a pleasant freshness and fruity notes. At the end, the typical slightly nutty flavour of Malvazija.

A very pleasant balance of body and freshness characterises the Malvazija from the Santomas winery.
