Stekar Goriska Brda Oliver Red 2021

Marking another first for Wine Club, this bottle comes to us from the Primorska Slovenia! Nestled between the Adriatic and amongst the foothills of the Alps, this region grows local varietals Refosco, Tokaj, and Rebula as well as Cabernet and Merlot, which is was Stekar opted to blend here. The result is delightful to drink, vibrant and expressive on the nose with aromas of spice, black cherry, and strawberry. The palate echoes the fun and fresh aromas, with the fruit and acidity dancing in the mouth, leaning it towards the ‘chillabe red’ category of wine.
