SAUVIGNON + GRAŠEVINA - IURIS

A hit by the Iuris Winery! Is there anything better than when a loved one positively fails your expectations? Welschriesling in this coupage is somehow simple, perhaps too mysterious so, as D. Klasiček said, Sauvignon, with its aroma, is kind of like its more serious sister. Sauvignon dominates in the coupage with its more clearly defined aromas, but fresh apple aromas emanate in the aftertaste which is a general characteristic of Welschriesling. The wine pairs well with light dishes, especially with soft and semi-hard cheeses made of cow’s milk.

Technological data: double vintage with optimal grape yield, vinification under controlled conditions 15 – 18 °C in stainless steel tanks, a section of Sauvignon macerated prior to being pressed for a period of 8 hours, separate fermentation, filled and coupaged prior to fermentation.

Colour

Pale strow colour, almost transparent with greenish reflection, clear texture.

Aroma

Very intense aromas of lemongrass, citrus, and after opening typical herbal aromas of cut grass and elder flower prevail.

Flavour

Refreshingly tart acid very harmoniously integrated into the multi-layered aromas and flavors. Excellent balance between Sauvignon and Welschiesling, Sauvignon is more dominant on the palate, with a clearer defined aromas. Aromas of fresh apples in the aftertaste are an ode to Welschriesling.
