Movia Sauvignon Vert 2023

750ml

Sale price$25.50

Made from 100% Sauvignon Vert (also called Sauvignonasse or Friulano), this wine begins with hand-harvested grapes, destemmed and macerated for 18 hours at a cold temperature before pressing and fermentation, after which it spends 7 months aging on the lees in stainless steel tanks. The result is a golden yellow wine, with intense aromas of pear, kiwi, yellow grapefruit, jasmine, green tea, and white pepper. The palate is full and refreshing, with mineral-driven notes of apple, gooseberry, herbs, sweet spice, and subtle hints of grass. Enjoy it alongside seafood, sushi, beef carpaccio, and poultry.

Movia

Located in the village of Ceglo, in the heart of the Brda appellation, close to Italian border, Movia wines are a big contributor to the growth and popularity of Slovenian wine in the global market. Founded in 1820, the winery and estate had grown to become one Europe’s most famous wineries in the years following World War II, and were favorites of celebrities and politicians alike. Today, vision of Movia is led by third-generation winemaker Aleš Kristančič, who is as renowned for his passionate embrace of organic and biodynamic farming practices as he is for his larger-than-life personality and ingenious approach to terroir-driven winemaking. Aleš primarily grows Rebula, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Pinot Noir — all without the use of herbicides, pesticides, or fungicides. The Rebula and Pinot Grigio are generally bottled separately while the Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay are used in blended wines.
