Žan Red is the Keltis red built entirely from indigenous Slovenian varieties — Zametovka, Kraljevina, Blaufrankisch, Welschriesling. These are grapes with very specific characters: rustic, mineral, earthy in the way that wines from this corner of Slovenia tend to be earthy. The Kelhar family ages them in their own barrels, made from wood cut on the estate. It's a wine that comes from a complete place — a farm, a forest, a hillside, the same family for 240 years.

Zametovka, Kraljevina, Blaufrankisch and Welschriesling, hand-harvested. Spontaneous fermentation with ambient yeasts. Extended maceration for structure and colour. Aged in oak barrels made from estate-grown wood from the Kelhar forest. No fining, no filtration. Minimal sulphites. Organic, Demeter certified.

Serve around 14°C. Take it out of the fridge 15–20 minutes before opening.

If you have a decanter or any wide vessel, pour it in and wait 20 minutes. This wine has structure and opens up well with air.
