Venezia Giulia IGT Vitovska 2021 (750 ml.) Skerk
The Vitovska from Skerk is produced with pure grapes from the homonymous vine, grown in Ograde, the watershed between Italy and Slovenia. A stunning white wine from the border, made from organic farming, with spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in wooden barrels and maceration for a few days on the skins. No clarification or filtration before bottling. Extraordinary bouquet for spontaneity and definition, with notes of peach melba, wild herbs, honey, and eucalyptus. Smooth and creamy taste, with a salty charge that significantly extends its persistence. Exceptional.

THE COMPANY
Founded in 1990, the Skerk estate is a young and continuously growing company thanks to the quality of its products. The 6 hectares of property, located in Prepotto on the Karst Plateau, enjoy a climate and terroir perfect for cultivating the vitovska, Istrian malvasia, sauvignon, pinot grigio, and terrano grape varieties, which manage to express themselves at exceptional levels. The company's philosophy involves an entirely natural and organic approach, with certification to prove it, whereby any chemical treatment is strictly prohibited. The winery itself is a simple cave carved into the karst rock where the wines, never clarified or filtered, undergo macerations and vinification. Sandi Skerk, the owner of the company, has succeeded in producing unique wines with a typical Friulian imprint, now highly appreciated by both the public and critics both within and outside the Italian borders.
