Krasno white wine with maceration is an orange wine that our oenologist Darinko Ribolica prepared from three varieties typical of the Brda region – Ribolla Gialla, Malvasia, and Sauvignonasse. The wine took one year to macerate. Each variety was macerated separately, Ribolla Gialla in oak barrels and Malvasia and Sauvignonase in stainless steel barrels. Compared to our white wines, Krasno Orange is a richer and more complex wine with more structure. It has a different aromatic profile and more tannins, which is why its shelf life is very long. It can be aged from 5 to 10 years, and we expect it to become softer and more harmonious with time. We recommend you pair it with food with stronger flavours, such as spiced chicken or grilled spicy vegetables.
