Intense bouquet of buckwheat honey, VA, candied peach. Medium body, nice grapefruit bitterness and completeness. Round, delicious and balanced. The aftertaste is very long. It's more interesting on the palate.
The 2017 "not" is completely different compared to the 2012 "special vintage" release. There is no wow effect (no negative connotation though).
The 2017 "not" is a 100% Pinot Grigio, sourced from 30-year-old vines of the Slatnik vineyard. The grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed. Half of them are macerated for 8-10 days on the skins. The other half is direct-pressed. Both halves are assembled together to finish the spontaneous fermentation. And then the wine ages in Slavonian oak barrels for 2 years.
