Stajerska , Slovenia
Slovenia has firmly reappeared on the world wine map with the rise of natural wines. The Stajerska region constitutes the Slovenian part of Styria, where the Romans were already actively cultivating grapes. The gateway to this region is the city of Maribor, picturesque and famous for housing the world's oldest grapevine. This massive vine is over 400 years old and still bears fruit. It's no surprise that the oldest Slovenian winery can be found here. Despite the region's rich winegrowing history, it's equally fascinating to witness its contemporary developments. Present-day natural winemaking is thriving in Styria. One of the most notable modern winemaking styles here is likely pét-nat (pétillant naturel), the original method of producing sparkling wines. In pét-nat, the wine is bottled before the first fermentation is complete, allowing natural bubbles to form. Unlike the méthode traditionelle, which involves adding yeast to the wine, this method is harder to control. As a result, winemakers must be incredibly precise to achieve the desired outcome.

Een van mijn favoriete wijnen ooit! Een heerlijke pet nat, beetje snoepig, met een sterke bubbel. Heel interessant en zeker waard om te proberen!!

Fantastisch. Dit was voor mij het keerpunt om vanaf nu natuurwijn áltijd écht een kans te geven.
