Extremely pleasant aroma includes delicate notes of meadow flowers, white peach, fresh apricot and dried apple. The palate is dominated by fresh, perfectly ripe yellow apple, peach , fresh yellow plum, passion fruit and ripe grapefruit. Texture is moderately buttery, tannins are present, but delicate and soft. It has a beautiful salinity that takes the complexity of the wine up a notch or two. Acids are beautifully expressed, giving the wine an incredible juiciness and freshness. The aftertaste is long and fruity hand picked selected grapes, 9 months maceration in used oak, matured on fine yeasts for 14 months Atimo gives a new meaning to the ‘low’ in low-intervention wines, as winemaker Filip Koletnik believes that the grape itself contains everything needed to create the wine, i.e. no cultured yeast, no fining or filtration, no temperature control and no added sulphur. This 100% Rebula wine from Goriška Brda in Slovenia (bordering Italy) went through 9-month skin maceration and is an unforgettable, lively and cloudy orange wine that is so elegantly complex. Purposefully produced with fine lees kept in the bottle, so turn the bottle upside down before opening to enjoy the cloudy style of wine! Show more
