Rodica Malvasia 2023

Located in the picturesque hills near Marezige, 5 km from the Adriatic sea, Rodica vineyard enjoys rich soil full of minerals, consisting predominantly of limestone. The vines are forced to “fight” to get water, which results in better quality grapes. Every second row of the vineyard is unplanted to allow for more sunshine and breeze resulting in exceptional quality harvest. The pressed juice spends a few hours on skin until spontaneous fermentation begins. Up to 25% of the wine was matured for 6 months in 2,500-liter acacia barrels, then blended in stainless steel tanks and bottled unfiltered. The nose offers aromas of wild flowers and peach. Medium-body with balanced acidity and bright fruitiness, this Malvasia is elegant and refreshing.
