Konjičan – White is a blend of 4 sorts: Laški Rizling (Welsh Riesling), Rizvanec, Beli Pinot (White Pinot) and Renski Rizling (White Riesling). Each sort is classically and traditionally processed. This means a fast grape processing, clarification of the must and alcoholic fermentation at lower temperatures. In this manner, we produce the wine that successfully preserves primary aromas and is fresh, harmonious and drinkable. It was bottled in March 2006 and is filled in series of 50.000 L. We use 1L and 0,75 L bottles. Wine ripens inside the bottles for at least 14 days.

Color: Golden-yellow color with green shades - very vivacious
Nose/ Bouquet: The nose is gorgeous, reminiscent of flowers, richly fruited (fragrances of green apples and grapefruit) and immensely fresh.
Palate: It is an extremely harmonious wine with pleasant acidity gained from Beli Pinot (White Pinot), ennobled with fruitfulness and extraordinary palate of Rizvanec, generous constitution of Laški Rizling (Welsh Riesling), while Renski Rizling (White Riesling) adds a superficial palate, which reveals the characteristics of the ground, is fruity and can only be ascribed to White Konjičan. 

At your disposal: 300.000 L

To be served with: Sour soup made of trotters, a veal ragout, various stews, etc …
