Edi Simcic 'Triton' Goriska Brda White Blend, Slovenia 2023
$0
Triton, an allusion to the Adriatic sea breezes sweeping over Brda, is the estate’s white blend. It draws on three indigenous and local varieties—sauvignonasse (another term for Friulano), rebula, and malvazija—sourced from vineyards in Vipolže, Kozana, and Fojana. Vineyards are planted in Opoka, a unique blend of marl, sandstone and limestone soils. The wine is fermented with a native pied de cuve and aged 11 months in French oak barriques (10–15% new), followed by 6 months in bottle. The cool, damp 2023 vintage brings freshness and energy with notes of white peach, dried tarragon, a squeeze of grapefruit pith, and a sea breeze finish. Around 2,600 bottles produced.
