So fragrant! Opened up with a soft, peach scent and moved into orange blossom and honey. Creamsicle nose! But upon tasting I get butterscotch and salty sea air and an almost manzanilla sherry- level dryness.
Savory, complex, and thirst-quenching all at the same time. It’s just what I needed on a late summer evening on the balcony with a warm, breezy sunset.

How could I resist a $22 bottle of “orange” wine being a devotee of Gravner, Radikon & Damijan... and this was a pretty good attempt. Same region near Slovenian border, this has that wild savage oxidative nose, nutty, dried orange rind, dehydrated peach & apricot. Mid weight on palate, maybe lacking some guts & polish - solid acidic structure & balance leading to drying finish. Contemplative wine - would def buy again!
