Bela Krajina, Dolenjska, Slovenia
Fruit from multiple vineyard sites. Bright garnet color with ruby and purple highlights. Bountiful fruit forward aromas and flavors of raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, cranberry and kirsch with hints of dried herbs and black pepper. Plush and juicy with soft tannins, medium body and crisp acidity. Tangy, fresh and very “Beaujolais-like.” (Carbonic Maceration?) No sign of oak aging. Thanks for the tasting, Ron B! Revisited in March 2026. Still fresh and lively.
