2023 | Stekar Sivi Pinot | Slovenia
The 2023 Sivi Pinot is Jure’s remarkable Pinot Grigio, coming from a varying age of vines, within his Pročno and Španc vineyards. The famous Opoka soils (or marl) that are common in this area are what gives Sivi Pinot its extra personality with mineral and aromatics, and after a hand harvest, the fruit spent 14 days in contact with the skins to give extra texture and depth during natural fermentation in stainless steel. The wine was then moved to large French oak and aged for 11 months before it was bottled; never seeing added sulfites or any filtration. With a gorgeous salmon peachy color in the glass, the wine is intense on the nose and palate with dried and ripe tree fruit, spicy apricot, and an undertone of fresh minerality. A wonderfully long finish, this wine has gorgeous depth, a slight grip, and well-rounded acidity for a very balanced ‘orange wine.’
