2016 Draga Miklus Pinot Grigio Orange
Unique, almost red wine, Natural/orange category, colour of red wine, very persistent, mineral, savoury, very complex.....this wine requires a lot of experience, suitable for expert sommeliers. The wine has a very complex and characteristic broad bouquet, slightly aromatic with hints of dry hay, toasted almonds, liquorice, red fruits, vanilla. Coppery colour, natural colour obtained with maceration on the skins.
In the early 1900s, Ivan Miklus acquired the land to be devoted to the cultivation of grapevines. With the help of his son Franz he renewed one hectare of vineyard by digging the solid land with his own hands as deep as 80 cm. Soon Franz was called for a long time in military service and after a few years he was offered to work as a commander in aviation. Even against the will of his father, he refused and chose a much harder life but which gave him more satisfaction. Working the land at that time required much more effort and sweat than today.
In 1992, a constant wine commerce began with the first labels named Draga. Later the grandson Milan, with a great help of his wife Anna, started to produce also wines labelled Miklus. In 2006 Start of production wines long maceration.
