This rose made from 100% Blaufrankisch, known in Slovenia as Modra Frankinja, has a soft pale pink color. The nose of this wine reflects scents of meadow flowers, fresh strawberries and raspberries, and in the back of your nose you’ll find hints of honey. The palate comes alive with off dry flavors of red fruits, those strawberries and raspberries come to life, cherry notes present as well. The finish completes with mineral nuances and a light salinity before the acid cleanses your tongue. This modern styled rose is sure to be your summer favorite. It has Matic’s signature all over it.
This wine is where Matic has let his passion show. The juice and skins are aged together for 200+ days in a clay amfora, just as the ancients did. The wine is bottled unfiltered, direct from the clay vessel to the bottle, and as such presents with a cloudy deep lemon or orange hue. Upon first nose you’ll find apple or even cider notes to this wine. Given time to breathe the nose will open with lemon, orange blossom, honeysuckle notes and after longer even dries roses. On the palate the wine is dry with a fresh streak of acidity. Because of the aging with the grape skins there’s a slight tannic element to this wine, while reminding you of flavors from orange zest, sweet flowers, and green apple. The long finish leaves you with a pleasant dry feeling and remnants of peach. This is what you’ll want to open when you’re ready to start the party. Limited Production
