The benchmark in skin-contact white wines. The amber wines of Gravner are some of the most sought-after in the world.
Elegant and lifted. Rich and layered in character.
Dusty florals, pine, oolong tea, fresh ginger bread, and cloves and baking spice aromatics. Accented in flavour, with dried peach, tart apple and apricot, sour citrus, and a crisp cedar finish.
Weighty on the palate, balanced by a zesty acid core, dry, structured with silky phenolics, mineral crunch, and a persistently rich finish.
The last release of this wine till 2027!

NERD NOTES
Due to overall mild temperatures, in autumn grapes developed noble rot. The harvest ended in the Hum on 28 October. Made from Ribolla grapes. While fermenting in Georgian amphorae buried underground, it underwent a long maceration with wild yeasts and no temperature control. After the drawing off and pressing phases the wine was poured back into amphorae for at least five more months before it started ageing in large oak barrels, where it was left for six years. Wine is bottled without fining or filtration.
