THE STORY

Žan is the skin-contact white of the Keltis range — a blend of pretty much every white variety on the estate: Rumeni Plavec, Muscat, Traminer, Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Kraljevina. Three days of skin contact, then stainless steel. The result is something that smells like a fruit market and drinks like a wine that knows exactly what it is. Completely dry, no sulphites, intensely aromatic. The kind of bottle that gets opened and then immediately discussed.

WINEMAKING DETAILS

Blend of Rumeni Plavec, Muscat, Traminer, Pinot Blanc, Riesling and Kraljevina, hand-harvested. Three days skin maceration with separate varieties, spontaneous fermentation with ambient yeasts in stainless steel. Aged in stainless steel on lees. No fining, no filtration. No added sulphites. Organic, Demeter certified.

SERVING NOTE

Chill for 30 minutes before opening. Already cold? Take it out and wait 10 minutes — this orange wine is best around 12°C.

If you have a decanter or any wide vessel, pour it in and wait 15 minutes. The aromatics open beautifully. Not mandatory.
