Vrbanjka Blaufränkisch
Bela Krajina, Dolenjska, Slovenia
Single Vineyard Slovenian Blaufrankish. Medium ruby color with a dark core. Aromas and flavors of ripe blueberry, blackberry, dried herbs, purple flowers, black pepper and baking spices. Fruit forward but in wonderful harmony. Smooth tannins along with beautiful mouthfeel and complexity. Medium-plus body and acidity but not overpowering. Perfectly balanced. Interesting, versatile and delicious. Thank you for the tasting, Ron B! Revisited in October 2026. Getting better with some additional bottle age. Getting more.
