Winemaker Notes
Medium gold with generous aromas tropical fruits and honey, a ripe round palate with prounced minerality and a creamy texture, with a long finish.
"This needs a few hours of air to open. When it does, the fruit character is complex, combining white nectarine, orange and lemon. It feels smoky and savory, with the weight to match a grilled orata."

Spectator
Lying along the prime strip of land that adjoins the Italian and the Slovenian sides of the Collio, the Movia estate has been in existencesince the year 1700. It was purchased by the Kristancic family in 1820 and is currently run by the iconic Ales Kristancic. Growing up in the vineyards and winery on many a late evening and Saturday afternoon when he would have preferred to play soccer, the new moon rose and Ales dutifully helped his father transfer wines from barrel to barrel. Today he passionately implements the rigorous biodynamic principles handed down to him while simultaneously experimenting to produce wines of unprecedented purity and authenticity. His distinct vision stems from the wisdom of eight generations spent among the vines and in the cellar coupled with a natural intuition toward to relationship between nature, soil, vines, and wine.
