Goričko Sauvignon Marof

Rich wine with complex aromatics and extremely long aftertaste. The flower is ripe, over wood, bread crust and spices. In the mouth, the wine is dry, full and mineral.

Medium deep golden yellow. Medium emphasized bouquet, ripe. Honey, butter, smoke, a layer of dried herbs, wood. Distinct, diverse, but very nicely composed. Dry in the mouth, but not completely. Stronger, with higher ripe acidity. Lively and open in the mouth. An abundance of oily texture and good fruit. Caramel, butter, saltiness and full taste are attributes that convince in the mouth.

Calm, with a much more moderate alcohol level than in the past, when often times heat would prevail. This time the variety and origin dominate. Long aftertaste.
