Damijan Podversic Kaplja Bianco *orange Wine*
Vintage: | 2019 |
---|---|
Description: | Organically Farmed. Biodynamic Practices. Orange Wine. Chardonnay 40%, Friuilano 30%, Malvasia Istriana 30%. Fermented and aged on the skins for 60-90 days. This wine boasts an intense gold color which is given by the level of ripeness of the grapes at the time of harvest, by the low yield per hectare in the vineyards, by the increased skin contact during fermentation as well as the ageing method. The 2019 vintage was warm and dry, with no botrytis, making this a clean, spicy/herbal, and lightly structured edition of Kaplja. "Youthfully coy in the glass, the 2019 Bianco Kaplja wafts up with a bouquet that reminds me of an exotic herbal tea with dried herbs and spices encasing a nectarine core. This is soft and enveloping with ripe orchard fruits propelled by brisk acidity. It finishes with medium length and is lightly structured, leaving sage and young peach notes to linger. The 2019 is a very mellow vintage of Kaplja." - Eric Guido, Vinous Media. Serve at 58f. Spontaneous fermentation; fermented and aged in conical wooden vats; unfiltered, unfined. |
