Bolfan Zagorski Bregi Cuvee (2021)

Golden yellow in the glass. The nose is mysterious and delicious, not at all fruit-forward like most Malvasias in Istria, but dirty and very earthy. The aromas are so tightly intertwined and with time you can recognize dry hay, wet clay, dry figs, rosemary, bay leaf, macchia and light medicinal note. Definitely there are plenty of things to smell in this wine, but the real action happens in the mouth. First the acidity bites the palate, and it is good to have it so strong since it successfully manages to balance out the high alcohol content. The wine is slightly tannic, has a nice silky texture on the tongue, with powerful flavor and body. Exploding mouthwatering minerality improves further the balance and makes the finish moderately long, clean and delicious. The fight between acids, salts, alcohol and fatness is so compelling that soon – in a glance – you find yourself finishing the third glass…

Food pairing: Fish raw (sashimi), Oysters and other raw seafood.
