THE STORY

Yellow Muscat — Rumeni Muškat in Slovenian — is one of the oldest grape varieties on the Kelhar estate. Most Muscat wines are made sweet or semi-sweet to show off the grape's floral aromatics. Keltis ferments it dry, which is the harder path but the more interesting one: the florals stay, but they're balanced by acidity and a mineral tension from the marl soils. The result is a wine that smells like a garden and drinks like a proper white — not a liqueur, not an aperitif.
