Zavec Bros Skin Contact Pinot Gris image

Zavec Bros Skin Contact Pinot Gris

Slovenia

Amber-hued and aromatic with notes of apricot, orange peel, and gentle spice. Textural and complex, showing fine tannic grip, savoury depth, and a long, dry, slightly nutty finish.

Zavec Brothers Pinot Gris Skin Contact is an orange wine from Slovenia's Štajerska region. Crafted by Zavec Brothers, this wine undergoes wild fermentation with extended skin contact, followed by six months of barrel aging on its lees, resulting in a textured and expressive profile.

The wine presents a complex nose of red berries, wild strawberries, peach, and a touch of mint tea. On the palate, it offers a creamy texture with flavours of bruised pear, orange zest, and a faint hint of spice, culminating in a bone-dry, slightly salty finish.

Contains sulphites.

  • Grilled fish
  • Herb chicken
  • Light spicy Asian dishes
  • Vegetarian fare
  • Soft cheeses

Zavec Brothers Winery, located in Slovenia's Štajerska region, is renowned for its commitment to natural winemaking. The Pinot Gris Skin Contact exemplifies their approach, showcasing the unique characteristics of the grape and terroir through minimal intervention and traditional techniques.
