Profumo

Perfume

Light green nuances with their slightly sparkling appearance suggest the freshness and the fruit character of this wine. The scent is discreet, but broad. Citrus flavour reminds of its varietal character, while ripe pears and grassland herbs give us the willingness to drink.

Colore

Color

Straw yellow.

Gusto

Taste

The taste is full, rich and cheerful with crisp acidity, which leave a fine mineral trace on the tongue in an elegant and durable after-taste. This is definitely nicely mellowed rebula, with good harmony in the prime of its life path.

Serve at:

10 - 12 °C.

Longevity:

05 - 10 years

From this winery
"Trust is not enough, you have to believe," emphasizes Marko Skocaj, the owner of the winery in Ceglo (Goriška Brda, aka Collio), known by it's brand DOLFO. Dolfo Skocaj was the one who, shortly after the First World War World War, bought the first patch of earth and went on his own. He believed that Brda have the best natural conditions for vine growth and the production of such a quality wines that there will be not difficulty to sell. His son Rudolf expanded the estate, but in 1986 passed the reins in the hands of his just 19-year-old son Marko. He believed that Marko will be able to upgrade the accumulation of the knowledge, passed down from generation to generation, with new approaches.

That were the turning years for Brda's wine making, which was for several decades in the clamps of the cooperative cellar or limited to the unnamed draft wine. Marko believed that it is time for an independent approach to the market. He joined the group of young winemakers who have decided to offer start bottling their wine. In homage to his grandpa he chose his name for the house brand. That's how, in 1989, the wines labelled DOLFO appeared on the wine lists of the restaurants and on the shop shelves of the enotheques.

Wine lovers and connoisseurs immediately recognized the quality oh his extremly fry wines. What followed was a success that resulted in expansion of the vineyards, followed by building of a new cellar with a tasting room. Family Skocaj cultivates today 14ha of vineyards and annually provides the market with 55,000 bottles of excellent wines
