This 100% Refošk has a full body with a good harmony of alcohol, acidity and mature tannins. On the nose there is blackberry, raspberry and a slight breath of cocoa leading onto the palate with black pepper, plums and mocha. A long after taste reminds you of flavours of ginger bread.
Recommended serving is at room temperature (18 - 20°C). This complex wine is unfiltered so requires decanting.
Grapes from the vineyard Sergaši are fermented together with grape juice at temperatures from 25 and 28°C. Prolonged - 30 day maceration. The wine was then poured into new French barrique oak barrels to mature for the next 24 months. Malolactic fermentation followed. Due to its great structure sulphur additives are minimal.
Aging Potential for this wine is 15 years and more.
