Super-traditional Vitovska, enhanced even more with the new, dense, low-yielding alberello planting: about 40 quintals per hectare. A drink of great depth and precision that proposed by Matej in which the varietal comes out with warm notes of well-ripened and tasty apricot, together with citrusy hints of orange peel and grapefruit, truly fragrant. Great savouriness in the mouth, compared to a more whispered freshness, but of great impact thanks to an important density! Another great, typically territorial wine from this small winery in Sgonigo. I would like a bucket of it please!

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.
