Late harvest at the beginning of October, manual harvesting of grapes, a short period between vines and fermentation (maximum 2 hours). Primary fermentation began with naturally occurring yeasts. Macerated 3 months, long after fermentation was complete and the grape skins had settled. The mash is pressed around the New Year. Young wine matures in used barrique barrels, sur lie, 36 months, no overflowing. No sulfur dioxide or other preservatives are added before bottling. The wine is naturally stable and ready for a long lifespan. No filtration.

Maturation: 36 months of maturation in used barrique barrels until bottling Wine region: Slovenian Istria Location: Truške Alcohol value: 14,0% vol. Sugar level: dry Harvest: hand harvested Contents: 0.75 l Packaging: 6 × 0.75 l Serving temperature: 18 °C 

The wine is of an intense ruby red color with copper shades. The aroma of the wine is extremely rich and complex because it exhibits more than 30 months of maturation in oak wooden barrels. We are tempted by aromas of overripe fruits, jams, peppers, wood, and aromas of chocolate and spices. In the body, the wine is elegant, rich, full, fruity spicy, and with a pleasant spicy aftertaste.

It is excellent with more substantial red meat dishes, aged cheese, or as an accompaniment to tender chocolate desserts (40% cocoa content).
