Wines

“Breg” is a blend of Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon, with smaller proportions of Riesling Italico and Chardonnay. The varieties are fermented separately in buried amphorae, but they’re blended before their long stint in barrel, spending six years commingling and harmonizing. Compared to the cerebral Ribolla, “Breg” is more aromatically exuberant, more fruit-forward, and a bit more immediately approachable. One catches traces of the Sauvignon’s assertive citrus glean, hints of the Riesling’s regal poise and minerality, and one feels the breadth and generosity of the Pinot Grigio’s ample texture. All weave together into a delicious whole that is both explosively aromatic and deeply earthy, bright and ringing yet coiled and powerful.

Exclusively composed of the local Ribolla grape; fermented in Georgian amphorae buried underground; long maceration with wild yeasts and no temperature control; after fermentation, the wine rests again in amphorae for five more months and then is aged in large oak barrels for an additional six years; bottled without fining or filtering. This is a deeply personal creation of Joško Gravner that captures the essence of Ribolla in a way no other versions do—notes of white truffles and quince paste frame a strikingly mineral-led aromatic profile, with a kinetic sense of acidity and chiseled energy on the palate; gorgeous right now it will undoubtedly reveal its secrets gradually over the years to come.

Produced exclusively from the native Pignolo grape and fermented on the skins for an extensive period in large wood vats; wild yeasts and no temperature control employed; then, aged in oak barrels for an additional five years and given bottle age of five more years before release; bottled without fining or filtration.

A selection of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon produced only in the finest vintages in very limited quantity (1,700 bottles); a five week cuvaison in open oak vats and, as always, only wild yeasts and no temperature control; aged in oak barrels for seven years and then aged in bottle for an additional seven years before release; never fined or filtered.

This very special and rare bottling is produced exclusively from botrytised Ribolla grapes; it is a blend of three separate vintages: from the harvest of 23 November 2008, the harvest of 13 November 2009, the harvest of 15 November 2010; fermentation in amphora, then aged in small oak barrels; bottled in July 2015 without fining or filtration; only 1,200 bottles produced (presented as a single bottle in a wooden case).
