An authentic Riesling, sophisticated and beautifully aged, from the sun-drenched, steep hills of Slovenia's Styria region.
Tasting Notes
■ Appearance: Brilliant golden color with lively green reflections.
■ Nose: An elegant and complex bouquet interwoven with aromas of ripe white peach, green apple, and delicate white flowers. Layers of sophisticated honey nuances and a refined petrichor aroma (mineral/petroleum-like) beautifully unfold with age.
■ Palate: Crisp, vibrant, and perfectly structured. Lively acidity dances across the palate, bringing flavors of juicy citrus and stone fruits, leading to an elegant, mineral-rich finish.
Laski Riesling (true Rhine Riesling, or Renski Riesling) is celebrated globally as the king of white grapes. Unlike Welschriesling (Laški Rizling), which is an entirely different variety, this extraordinary varietal is known for its incredible aging potential, vibrant acidity, and profound ability to express the unique characteristics of the soil in which it grows.
The Story
"Vina Ferk" - A Family Winery with Deep Respect for Nature and a Low-Intervention Approach
Vina Ferk is a passionate family-run estate nestled in the renowned Podravje wine region. With a focus on low-intervention winemaking and a deep respect for nature, they craft expressive wines that perfectly embody the pristine, high-altitude terroir found in the Slovenian landscape.
Grapes are hand-harvested from carefully selected low-yield vines to achieve an alcohol content of 13%. To preserve the pure floral and fruit aromas, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by bâtonnage (aging on fine lees) to impart rich texture and complexity to the wine before bottling.
Food Pairing
The inherent rich acidity and complexity from aging in this wine create dreamy pairings with a wide range of dishes, from rich seafood to mild and spicy Asian cuisine:
- ■ Roasted pork with applesauce (The wine's vibrant acidity beautifully cuts through the rich umami of the pork, and the green apple aroma perfectly harmonizes with the sauce.)
- ■ Spicy Thai green curry (The wine's subtle honey-like sweetness and rich aroma cool the palate, providing a wonderful balance to the spices and heat of the dish.)
- ■ Pan-seared scallops (The wine's deep minerality acts like freshly squeezed lemon, enhancing the sweetness, delicacy, and buttery flavor of the scallops.)
Serving Temperature: 10℃〜12℃ (Enjoy at this temperature range to bring out its inherent richness.)
