After the delicate Vitovska, the Bianco Trebež kicks in with its expressive and intense bouquet dominated by VA, spoiled apricots, uzvar, peach, spices and dried herbs. With time it calms down a bit, it doesn't become more complex or interesting just less crazy. Medium+ body. Good acidity, tannin, balance and persistence. Quite complex yet a bit too vulgar for my taste.
The 2015 Bianco Trebež is a blend of Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes are sourced from 35-year-old vines. Each variety is fermented and macerated separately in open vats. Pinot Grigio spends 8 days in contact with skins, while the other grapes macerate for 18 days before being assembled and aged in large oak barrels for up to 3 years.
