Sommelier Wine Awards 2024 - Gold Medal Winner
One of the top flight sparkling wines from the Istenic family in Slovenia, renowned globally for their fine traditional method bubbles. The Prestige Extra Brut is only made in Slovenia's finest vintages and uses classic Champagne varieties. Its long lees-ageing gives complexity and depth with mature notes of biscuit, meringue and fresh brioche behind zingy notes of lemon and honey apple. It's creamy, soft and moreish.
'' Mouth-watering braised-fennel aromas. The full spectrum of sweet anise
flavours in the mouth, from baby green fennel fronds to caraway seeds, from buttery
roast-parsnip succulence to golden beets in tarragon dressing, from yellow-lentil
earthiness to ginger-root bite. It's complex, fulsome, stratified and bold.'' 17.5pts Tamlyn Curran (Jancis Robinson.com)
