Description
The Sauvignon Blanc Colles-Haloze 2023 from Vino Gross originates from the steep vineyards of Slovenian Štajerska and impressively showcases the elegant, cool style of this origin. The sites around Haloze are among Central Europe's most exciting white wine regions, lending Sauvignon Blanc exceptional precision, freshness, and mineral tension. Vino Gross consistently works with a terroir-driven approach and is one of the region's most important producers when it comes to characterful and long-lasting white wines.
The 2023 vintage is focused, vibrant, and remarkably refined. Instead of loud fruit or exaggerated Sauvignon aromatics, the wine emphasizes structure, clarity, and expression of its origin. The freshness is never aggressive, but rather carries the wine with great elegance and tension. It is precisely this combination of cool minerality, subtle spice, and precise fruit that makes it particularly distinctive.
The vinification is deliberately understated, so that the unique characteristics of the site and the distinctiveness of the grape variety clearly remain the focus. This results in a Sauvignon Blanc with great depth, clear structure, and a long, mineral-driven finish, which impressively reflects the modern yet very terroir-driven signature of Vino Gross.
