From the producer
Skerlj
The Carso (Karst) is a formidable limestone plateau stretching from northeastern Italy to southwestern Slovenia. In this breathtaking corner shaped by rocks and the sea (just 15 km away), the estate's two hectares of vineyards share the space with the wild and beautiful forest that surrounds them. For generations, the Skerlj family has worked this land, raising pigs, growing wheat, and producing natural wines that capture the untamed spirit of this border region. In the mid-1960s, the grandfather of Matej and Kristina Skerlj—who currently run the estate—opened an "osmizza" in his native village of Sales. In addition to offering homemade wine to the locals, he sold eggs from the family chickens and cured meats from their own pigs. They began bottling in 2004, adopting a non-invasive approach in the cellar that seeks simplicity while working with precision and extreme care. Their winemaking is ultra-traditional: three-week maceration on the skins, gentle pressing, and aging for at least 2 years in large barrels.
Macerazione elegantissima.
Questa Malvasia Istriana è un vino affascinante e di grande beva. La macerazione anche se lunga è fatta con una grande materia prima che mantiene all’assaggio una bellissima integrità di frutto. In bocca il vino si muove in modo dinamico e snello, con una finezza molto smaliziata, con sentori di fiori di campo, erba tagliata ed un’immancabile mineralità che ne aumenta la godibilità a livelli fotonici. Richiami alla buccia di limone, frutta esotica e miele in chiusura, fanno di questo vino un ottimo compagno della tavola.
