Description
Rebula 2021 Atimo is the first attempt by Filip Kolektnik to create a pure rebula that reflects the freshness and drinkability characteristics of Atimo Malvazija.
The result is a perfectly balanced wine with great freshness and finesse. Vegetal and citrus aromas… one glass leads to another
Do not expect any filtration— on the contrary, the suggestion as indicated also on the label is to turn the bottle upside down before it is poured, because it is these yeasts that give the mouth a long and special aftertaste. An unforgettable wine. A lively, full-bodied wine of a gold yellow colour, with complex aromas, a strong and mineral flavour and long aftertaste.
Vinification
After having manually picked the most mature and healthy grapes, grown in biodynamic vineyards, the grapes are macerated for up to nine months in used wooden 550-l Tonneau barrels whereby only indigenous yeasts are used. Subsequently, the wine is matured on lees in used oak barrels for a minimum of 12 months. The wine is bottled in free fall. ATIMO wines haven’t undergone heat or cold stabilisation, and they are neither fined not filtered. ATIMO is purposefully produced with fine lees kept in the bottle.
