| Description: | This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is swoon-worthy with a full-bodied elegance that is firm, yet flexible. 30-year-old vines are the linchpin to the incredible depth and extended palate features of this wine. The alluring deep purpled garnet hue beckons. A fresh and beguiling nose of prominent black and blue fruit (plums, currants and blackberries) grabs your immediate attention. The first sip hijacks your palate with a seductive mosaic of black plum, crushed violet, and inky blackberry accented with leather, underbrush and a hint of bramble. Just a touch of mineral and cool climate blueberry teases on the finish. Dedicated and textured tannins provide a taut and nimble structurenot too chewy with an undertone of black currant skins. Phenomenal juice for a pittance and it rolls in at a beautifully 'normal' 13% alcohol. You Can make a great sub-15% abv wine that will age gracefully and provide you with 5+ years of continued enjoyment. This wine just screams "Buy me! Drink me! Make me Yours!". Movia has long been a standard-bearer for the wines of Slovenia and this remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon more than solidifies that position. Add to that the facts that the estate 1) is organically farmed, 2) uses native yeasts for fermentation, and 3) refuses any and all sulphur or additives and you have a natural wine lover's dream Cab. The Movia estate consists of 22 hectares that straddle the growing regions of Zgp Brda in Slovenia and DOC Collio in Italy. It came into existence in 1700 and became part of the Kristancic family through a marriage in 1820. They are a historical breakthrough winery for all manner of top tier Slovenian wines and are fervent disciples and evangelizers for the purity and sincerity of Nature's influence on their wines. |
