Keltis Bizeljisko Traminec 2018

$37.00

Another one of Keltis' top-tier white wines from the cold-climate appellation of Štajerska in northeastern Slovenia, also known as the Steiermark in Austria right over the nearby border. This iteration of the aromatic variety Traminer (Traminec in Slovene) is bright yellow in color and cloudy; the floral aroma of the variety is present but restrained; ripe citrus and tropical notes like pineapple round it out. Supple texture with nice, vivid acidity. Two days of maceration, with spontaneous fermentation; aging in large oak barrels for 18 months. A special white wine with both delicacy and gusto.
