Cattunar Valaron Savignon Blanc 2024

Valenta Sauvignon Blanc deserves every recommendation. A pleasant surprise awaits in this bottle: a clearly defined varietal character of Sauvignon, unintrusive and well-balanced aromatics, with a wide palette of herbal and vegetal notes, none of which dominate. The entire aromatic picture is firmly set on a minimal but permissible amount of residual sugar. In a comparative tasting alongside other domestic Sauvignons, a subtle difference in the mineral profile emerges — one that we generously attribute to the terroir.

A high-quality wine of light yellow-green colour with a delicate elderflower scent, full in flavour and body, featuring pronounced aromas of meadow herbs and bell pepper supported by the minerality of its terroir.

A wine with a pronounced yet elegant and non-aggressive aroma. The nose is dominated by characteristic herbal-fruity notes, while the palate reveals tropical fruit — mango, passion fruit and citrus — with a herbal finish. This fresh, medium-bodied wine pairs ideally with noble cheeses, fish dishes and shellfish.

The vineyards lie on the hills around Buje, at 220–250 m above sea level, in the Contarini site. The ideal microclimate allows the grapes to ripen while retaining enough acidity to give the wine fruitiness and balance, while the mineral white soil supports drinkability with its distinct mineral notes. Part of the must undergoes cryomaceration and, after gentle pressing, ferments separately at 14–16 °C. The wine ages on fine lees in stainless steel until spring, when it is bottled.

A gentle green hue complements the full palate and refined aromas of elderflower, intertwined with herbal and grassy notes and hints of tropical fruit. With pronounced fruitiness and minerality, it shows pleasant, gentle acidity and alcohol. Charming yet characterful, with a long and elegant finish. Best served with goat cheeses, spring risotto, shellfish, lobster and Asian cuisine.

Filomena is the most awarded wine of our winery. Its name derives from the Greek word Philoumenes, formed from phileo meaning love and menos meaning strength. When you taste it, we believe you will understand why this wine truly deserves its name. The Istrian Malvasia grapes are hand-harvested at full ripeness, macerated for 36 hours and vinified partly in acacia and oak barrels and partly in stainless steel tanks. After one year of ageing in wood, the wine is further matured in the bottle for another year. This gives the wine fullness and strength while developing its aromatic profile with excellent freshness. Outstanding ageing potential.

An aromatic semi-dry wine with a light yellow color, featuring aromas of citrus, acacia, elderflower and ripe stone fruit. Light, intensely fragrant and rounded, with pleasant freshness and a gently sweet finish.

The aromatic and attractive In Sylvis Florens Rosé dry wine is produced by processing the red Teran grape as if it were a white variety — through crushing, destemming, and pressing without maceration.

Arbor Cuvée is a blend of Teran, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot that will captivate you with its maturity and elegance.

Produced from a selection of the finest Teran grapes. It has an almost opaque purple color. On the nose, you will sense young and fresh aromas expressed through the intense scent of small red and black berries such as blackberry, blueberry, and strawberry, along with a hint of peppery notes and subtle forest nuances. On the palate, it is dry and shyly reveals its freshness, which is an essential characteristic of this wine, accompanied by a moderate body and low tannins.

Teran Barrique is a wine made from hand-picked grapes that reaches its optimal tasting moment only after it has achieved the desired maturity, which is why each bottle is sealed in a specially designed box. After ageing for 12 months in wooden barrels five metres underground, the wine requires a further three months of bottle maturation. For this reason, the box is unlocked only after 90 days using an app and a QR code, and during that waiting period the app sends the wine lover messages with insights from the world of oenology and the history of our winery. After three months the owner receives the unlocking code, and the bottle carries the message “Time for your time”. The unlocked treasure is within reach – a ruby-red wine with noble aromas and mature flavour, showing the characteristic notes of forest fruit and a subtle hint of vanilla, pairing perfectly with meat dishes, game, prosciutto and cheese, as well as various truffle dishes.

The vineyards lie on the hills around Buje at 220–250 m above sea level, in the San Pellegrin site, historically known for this variety. Maintaining low yields per hectare and the ventilation of the position allow the production of healthy grapes essential for extended ripening and achieving the desired concentration of aromas. After a short cryomaceration and gentle pressing, the must ferments at low temperature to preserve the irreplaceable Muscat aroma concentration.

Short description:A robust wine from the Merlot variety grown in the Motovun region, aged 18 months in oak barrels. Deep ruby colour with blackberry, plum and Mediterranean herb aromas.

An aromatic white wine with a golden-yellow hue, featuring notes of banana, pineapple and peach, complemented by pronounced minerality and softness.

On the Terre Rosse site near Petrovija (close to Umag) both genetically very close yet distinct varieties, Teran and Refosco, grow on red soil. Both have high acidity and a large share of antioxidants, producing fresh, invigorating and long-lasting wines. Low yield provides additional assurance of aroma quality and the potential for long ageing. Alcoholic fermentation begins at 25–28 °C for 10–15 days. Malolactic fermentation and maturation take place in small oak barrels for 36 months, helping to round the initially lively acids and tannins. This is followed by blending and ageing in a large cask for several months, after which the wine settles and matures in bottle for a further 6 months.

The wine has a beautiful greenish-yellow color, is crystal clear and moderately dense. On the nose, it opens with the scent of acacia blossom, notes of fresh apple and lime peel, and a hint of mint leaf. The wine is dry, moderately warm, and moderately soft, while on the other hand, it shows fine freshness, pleasant minerality, and a medium body. Kabolina Malvazija is in excellent balance, with pronounced flavor intensity and fine flavor persistence. The wine is tasty, harmonious, and very drinkable, with a peach note appearing on the aftertaste.

A fresh and fruity rosé wine with gentle berry and soft-fruit aromas, delicate floral notes and a mineral, slightly sweet finish. Semi-dry.
