Paolo Vodopivec’s vineyards are located in very close proximity to the border of Italy and Slovenia in the unique area of Carso, home to the white Vitovska grape varietal. Vodopivec focuses solely on this one grape, and takes and extraordinarily hands-on approach, from vineyard to cellar.
The vintage brings to harvest on 24 and 25 September a triumph of bunches of character: it is the best viaticum for a wine with a gentle and intriguing texture, precious and polite. The grapes macerate for six months in contact with the skins in Georgian amphorae. Fermentation leads to complete enhancement of the grapes before refinement.
