Jun 8th, 2022Delicious skin contact wine from Slovenia. One of my favorite producers from this region. Hints of watermelon, nice weight with some bright acid.

Feb 3rd, 2020interesting honeysuckle/floral/lemongrass/perfumed nose, then round and bright on a palette layered with watermelon/pomegranate/dragonfruit/red currant/cherry fruits, a petricore mineral quality, a briny/savory character, and grilled lemon. also feels creamy and fat on the mid-palette, maybe from batonage, or maybe from partial malo. they did a hell of a job balancing structure and complexity with freshness. definitely interesting and fun. but also not cheap for a rosé; i paid $20 retail. near room temp it is too rich for me, but straight out of the fridge its layers are more balanced and refreshing. i prob wouldn't pick it again at that pricepoint, but it was a good experience to try it out.
