Bianco Kaplja 2021
Damijan Podversic
Deep golden yellow color with amber-gold highlights due to the maceration of the skins. Aromatic nose with (dried) stone fruit, blossom, honey, and spicy notes. Complex and refined on the palate with notes of candied citrus, white tea, savory minerality, soft tannins, and a fresh, lingering, and clean finish.
A gourmet wine, perfect with refined vegetarian dishes, roasted vegetables with Parmesan, (grilled) oily fish, and risotto. Serve at 15°C.
