grape varieties and region specifics
100% welschriesling; roughly two weeks of skin contact followed by extended ageing in 300-litre barrels on the full lees, without fining or filtration. this is a direct expression of juznoslovenska and the way strekov 1075 works with the vineyard and cellar.

pair it with pork, mushrooms, fermented vegetables, hard cheese or charcuterie. serve it when you want a bottle with a clear sense of place and enough personality to stay interesting through the meal.
SERVING NOTES
