2020Radikon‘Oslavje’1LVeneziaGiuliaIGTFriuli-VeneziaGiulia,Italy

<p>60% Chardonnay/40% Sauvignon Blanc. All of Radikon’s whites are made in the same way: the organically farmed, stunningly low-yield, hand-harvested fruit is destemmed and gently crushed with a pneumatic press. The grapes are placed in old Slavonian oak vats and co-fermented with native yeasts. Maceration with the skins lasts about 3 months—however long it takes to reach total dryness–with no temperature control and no sulfur. The wine is racked and aged on its lees in huge Slavonian oak casks (25-35-hectoliter) for 3-4 years, racked twice a year. The wine is then bottled without sulfur and without filtration. The bottles are aged for several years before release.</p><p>Arrives the last week of July, 2025.</p>
