Single Vineyard Slovenian Blaufrankish. Aromas and flavors of ripe blueberry, blackberry, dried herbs, purple flowers, black pepper and baking spices. Fruit forward but in beautiful harmony. Smooth tannins along with beautiful mouthfeel and complexity. Medium-plus body and acidity but not overpowering. Perfectly balanced. Interesting, versatile and delicious.

Modra frankinja 2021

Fruit from multiple vineyard sites. Bright garnet color with ruby and purple highlights. Bountiful fruit forward aromas and flavors of raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, cranberry and kirsch with hints of dried herbs and black pepper. Plush and juicy with soft tannins, medium body and crisp acidity. Tangy, fresh and very “Beaujolais-like.” (Carbonic Maceration?) No sign of oak aging. Thanks for the tasting, Ron B!

Projekt Noir 2022

100% Slovenian Pinot Noir. Bright garnet color with a ruby core. Aromas of ripe red cherry, strawberry and raspberry with hints of dried herbs and dusty earth. Juicy red fruit also fills the palate along with a touch of mushroom. Finish is quite savory, bone dry and quite long. Acidity is high but the wine does not seem out of balance. Soft and silky tannins. Opens up nicely with some aeration. Thank you for the tasting, Ron B! Revisited in December 2025. Still bright and fresh tasting. — 2 years ago

Belo 140 Kerner Renski Rizling 2023

Interesting Slovenian white blend of Kerner (80%) and Riesling (20%). Aromas of apple, peach and white flowers. The palate is more orchard fruit (peaches and apricots) focused with additional notes of minerals and ripe pear. Lovely hint of saline on the finish. Bright acidity and freshness. Complex and vibrant. Outstanding! Thanks for sharing this interesting wine, Ron B! Revisited in January 2025. Mouth watering acidity and still very fresh. Revisited again in August 2025. Just stellar!! Mineral notes on the finish are now more pronounced. — 2 years ago
