1999 MAG - intense dark fruit with blackberry and cassis and a deep and long taste 1994 - gentlemen, stil very fruity with more red wild berries and a more delicate and elegant palate 1990 - incredibly vibrant with the classic coffee and cacao Rujno character.

Josko Gravner "Rujno" 100% Merlot 1997 12.5% from Venezia Giulia he does not produce this wine anymore, my first perfect score of the year, I could not imagine 100% Merlot, reminded me of a St Joseph, myrtille, berris, cedar, cinnamon aromas and on palate leather, some bacon, velvet, great acidity and long finish. Amazing

One of the greatest Merlot experiences I've had. Beautifully resolved tannin with bright acid, blueberries and a pine/dusty finish. Truly awesome.
