Malvazija Pilj 2017 Magnum – amber Malvasia

Malvazija Pilj 2017 Magnum – amber Malvazija for a special table

Malvazija Pilj 2017 Magnum It comes from the Manžan hills and is created in the spirit of minimal intervention and patient ageing. The grapes come from low-yield vines, and the magnum format is intended for the slow opening of the wine and for moments shared with a larger company.

Six days of maceration

After destemming, the grapes macerated on their skins for six days. The wine then matured on its fine lees for one year and continued to age in used oak barrels.

In a glass

The deep amber colour hints at a rich structure. The aroma intertwines ripe tropical fruit, fennel, almonds, delicate vanilla, and slightly nutty notes. The taste is full, mellow, and long, with the distinct texture of macerated Istrian Malvasia.

To the table

It pairs excellently with raw marinated fish, oysters, seafood, grilled pork, braised pork in darker sauces, roasted root vegetables, fermented cheese, and fennel dishes. Serve at 12–15 °C.
