DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Rich nose, with goose-berries and black currants dominating over fine oaky notes. Very dry, medium bodied with touch of tannins and salty savory character and lot of life.
Originally founded in 1820, the Movia winery and estate in Brda (Slovenia) had already become one of Europe's most famous wineries in the years that followed World War II. Its celebrity was bolstered by the fact that its wines were favorites of Marshal Tito who ruled over Slovenia and its neighbor Croatia as part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia until 1980. Located in the village of Ceglo in the heart of the Brda appellation, literally a stone's throw from the Italian border, Movia is widely put the Slovenia on the map of the world's great wine regions in the late 1990s when the interest in wines grown in former Eastern Bloc states began to flourish. The current generation of Movia is led by winemaker AleÅ¡ KristanÄiÄ 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 winemaking. Today, AleÅ¡ primarily grows Rebula, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Pinot Noir â 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. View More
