HAND HARVESTING – SELECTION OF THE BEST GRAPES

AGED IN 22 HL OAK BARRELS FOR A 24 MONTHS

Lees are leftover yeast particles and sediments that precipitate at the bottom of a barrel or tank during fermentation. When aged "sur lie" or on lies, the wine is aged in contact with the lees, a method that adds depth and complexity. Aged in large Slavonian oak barrels, the Pošip sur Lie shows aromas of ripe fruit and citrus notes, rich flavors on the palate, a well-balanced acidity and a long finish.

Limited edition – only 3000 bottles.
