Radikon, Oslavje, Venezia Giulia, Friuli, 2020

$54.00

Stanko Radikon was a legendary maverick in the village of Oslavia, Friuli, pioneering the modern resurgence of skin-contact white wines. The 'Oslavje' cuvée is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, sourced from steep, marl-rich slopes that impart profound depth and structure.

Following organic farming, the grapes are destemmed and macerated on their skins for several months in wooden vats, then aged extensively in large Slavonian oak casks without added sulfur. The wine is intensely complex and textural, revealing notes of dried apricot, orange marmalade, and savory herbs, with a long finish.

Varietal: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc
Appellation: Venezia Giulia, Friuli, Italy
Farming: Organic, Low-Intervention
Style: Orange, Skin-Contact. Dry, textural and complex
