Winemaker Notes

Ruby red with a translucent edge and pronounced density, which is indicated by thick tears that slowly sleep along the walls of the glass. Its aromas are intense and express a wide range of mature perceptions. Cherry, blackberry, black cherry, and plum, intertwined with perceptions of violets and red roses. Followed by a slight perception of smoke, which develops into a scent of cedar, eucalyptus, even wood. Over time, vanilla and licorice appear, with cloves in the background. The finish is marked by forest undergrowth, leather, and yellow tobacco. The wine is soft, broad, and joyful. Youthful acidity refreshes our mouths leaving them to a velvety tannin grip. A wine of character and intensity, noble elegance with a long aftertaste. Flavors of black cherries, ripe plums, dried red flowers, and sweet spices expresses on the palate for a long time.

Professional Ratings

  • 94
    An intense, floral nose of jasmine tea, meat, restrained cassis, cinnamon and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied with crisp, almost firm acidity and refined, condensed tannins. Tight in the finish, yet good. Drink or hold.

One of the world’s most classic and popular styles of red wine, Bordeaux-inspired blends have spread from their homeland in France to nearly every corner of the New World. Typically based on either Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot and supported by Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot, the best of these are densely hued, fragrant, full of fruit and boast a structure that begs for cellar time. Somm Secret—Blends from Bordeaux are generally earthier compared to those from the New World, which tend to be fruit-dominant.

A picturesque, eastern European wine growing nation, Slovenia can claim one of the most ancient winemaking cultures in all of Europe. Its history dates back to the Celts and Illyrians tribes, well before the Romans had any influence on France, Spain or Germany. But it wasn’t until the 1970s that Slovenia developed a more refined, private-sector wine industry.

Today it is a powerful source of some of the industry’s most important orange wines (whites made with extended skin contact); furthermore, fully three quarters of the country’s wine production is white.

Slovenian weather is continental with hot summers and cold, wet winters. It is divided into three wine regions: Podravje in Slovenia’s northeast; Primorska in its west, close to Italy; and Posavje in its southeast. These are further divided to nine wine districts.
