Savoriness, elegance, structure, breadth. Freshness and longevity coexist smoothly in each sip.
For 5 generations, the Erzetič family has been growing Ribolla Gialla and Ribolla Nera on the hills of Brda, the Slovenian Collio at about 300 m above sea level. Here, the mineral-rich soils, the confluence of mountain and sea air, and the choice of the most appropriate positions for the vineyards lead to the cultivation of a wide range of vines that produce top-quality wines, velvety and rounded wines with a subtle minerality. The soils are not all in one area and require the use of specific machinery, suitable for harvesting on steep hillsides.
The Orbis line is certified organic and the ambition is to soon convert all the estate’s wines to organic farming. At the Erzetič estate, each generation has its own vision, but each one always remains devoted to the family values centered on diligence, teamwork, and a constant propensity for perfection.
CURIOSITY
Ribolla Gialla has long been the most recognized, while Ribolla Nera, also called “Pokalca”, was almost forgotten over the years. The Erzetič farmhouse is the first in Brda to offer both varieties. The characteristics of the two species allow them to be used as a base for sparkling wines, fresh still wines and wines with prolonged maturation both in barriques and amphorae.
