Movia 'Sivi' Pinot Grigio, Brda Suho Belo Kakovstno Vino ZGP 2023

A$69.00
  • Grape: Pinot Grigio

  • Grapes are fermented in stee, rests 6 months on the lees in barrels and stainless steel tanks

  • A Pinot Gris with golden yellow color and a slight coppery rim, crystal clear and dense. Its intense bouquet is reminiscent of orange peel, peach compote, yellow plum and mango. Gentle notes of vanilla, butter, sweet root, as well as oregano, nutmeg and yellow rose join its aromatic landscape. The wine is dry, soft, at the same time fresh and minerally tasty, just enough to act balanced. With a slightly spicy finish. An intense wine of pronounced elegance, full-bodied and lingering with flavors of quince, orange, Mediterranean herbs and sweet root.

  • Food Pairing: Dishes with crab, lobster, as well as fried shrimp. Serve it also with thinly sliced lard on freshly toasted bread, or Asian dishes.

Located in the village of Ceglo in the heart of the Brda appellation, literally a stone’s throw from the Italian border, Movia is widely put the Slovenia on the map of the world’s great wine regions in the late 1990s when the interest in wines grown in former Eastern Bloc states began to flourish. The current generation of Movia is led by winemaker Aleš Kristančič who is as renowned for his passionate embrace of organic and biodynamic farming practices as he is for his larger-than-life personality and ingenious approach to winemaking. Today, Aleš primarily grows Rebula, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Pinot Noir — all without the use of herbicides, pesticides, or fungicides. The Rebula and Pinot Grigio are generally bottled separately while the Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay are used in blended wines.
