A fresh, mineral, but strong wine with a persistent smell and flavor. This nicely rounded and popular Malvasia comes from the stepped vineyards located nearly 400 meters above sea level. There are aromas of citrus, meadows, and grass with a touch of elderberry, a pinch of lemon, and a pinch of salt… a wine for exquisite enjoyment.

The grapes for this wine was picked a bit later than usual. The maceration was done for three days. After that, the fermentation was started in stainless steel barrels. Then, after 30% fermentation, the wine was put into new barrels of French oak, where the wine was aged for 10 months. Distinct aromas of jasmine, ripe green apple, and floral nose. A lovely development of honey, vanilla, and oak on the palate. Beautifully structured.

In the production, quick processing is followed by fermentation and 12-month ageing in French oak barrels, with periodical sediment stirring. Following the ageing in barrels, it is further blended and aged in stainless steel vats and in the bottle. Grimalda White is a terroir wine of pronounced minerality and long finish. Vanilla through which floral notes characteristic of the dominant Chardonnay project. Then fine fruity notes which move from orange peel and a little homemade peach towards, apricot. In the second wave notes of wet grass that and even wet black truffles. The wine is dry, partially warm and almost soft, but on the other hand even pleasantly cool, a bit of tannins are present. Special wine for special occasions.

Tea
Yellow and greenish color with crystal glare. It has very distinct fragrance, dominated by floral and herbal notes. At first the dominant flavors are dried grass and hay, tea and tobacco, which are beautifully composed with a floral fruity fragrance of acacia, lemon and pink grapefruit typical of Istrian malvasia. The flavor is extraordinary balanced between elegance and freshness. Fine balanced acidity puts an emphasize on freshness.

Pineapple
Straw yellow color with golden reflections. Very complex on the nose, with pronounced ripe exotic aromas of pineapple, citrus fruits, and melon, with hints of butter, toasted hazelnuts, fine wood and vanilla opening in the background. Rich and concentrated on the palate, creamy texture with ripe acids. The aftertaste is very long and harmonious. Due to the aromatic complexity and rich structure, it is an excellent match to a variety of dishes based on fish and crabs, white meat, game birds, veal, as well as half-aged cheese.

Erratic energy is evident in this non-filtered orange miracle. 70 days of skin contact and 6 years of aging in big volumes of wooden vats and barrels. The yeasty and fruity dry impact is intensive. Orange tannin lingers on the finish while acids spread on the palate.
