2004 Damijan Podversic "Kaplja" Bianco Orange
The 2004 Damijan Podversic "Kaplja" Bianco Orange is a rich orange wine from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, crafted from Chardonnay, Friulano, and Malvasia Istriana. It undergoes fermentation with extended skin contact and is aged in large oak barrels, resulting in a deep amber color. The wine has enticing aromas of dried apricot, candied orange peel, honey, and chamomile, with hints of tobacco, resin, and wet stone. On the palate, it is powerful yet balanced, featuring fine tannins and vibrant acidity that lead to a long finish. This wine is best enjoyed slowly, ideally paired with aged cheeses, roasted game, or on its own for a meditative experience.
