95pts Decanter

A superb wine with fine tropical aromas of kiwi and mango, plus green pea and herbal highlights in the mouth. A real bargain with a long, crisp finish.

Winemaker Notes

A perfect balance between freshness and depth! Typical varietal aromas of grapefruit as well as tomato leaf, not too aggressive though. On the palate, plenty of texture and minerality, bright acidity balanced with some weight and creaminess from lees aging, and a long finish.

Enjoy chilled, with vegetable dishes, asparagus risotto, pasta with white wine sauce, seafood, poultry, fish and young cheeses.

Winery Notes

Ptujska Klet winery cellars have been used for storing and aging wine since 1239. Located under the historic town of Ptuj founded by the Romans, the Ptuj Cellar is one of the oldest in Europe. Above it one can find a state-of-the-art modern winery focused on vinifying fresh, cool climate wines that Štajerska region is famous for. Varieties such as Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir thrive here and produce vibrant, elegant and fruit forward wines. A casual, light blend known as Haložan is a fun local wine often used for wine spritzers, traditionally made by mixing it with sparkling water.
