Kaplja Damijan Podversic 2020

Damijan Podversic's Kaplja is a classy, enveloping white produced by one of the icons of Italian wine. When we talk about Damjan Podversic we are talking about the elite of Italian wine, capable like few other producers of restoring territory and emotions with his interpretations. Damijan's master after all is the true legend Josko Gravner, and both have become landmarks of that enclave that acts as a natural watershed between Friuli and Slovenia. The winemaking style is typical of Collio, with white wines made with maceration on the skins and absolute respect for the terroir, avoiding the use of any chemical or synthetic substances to preserve their integrity. Damjian's hand then does the rest, and the wines combine finesse, creaminess and expressive spontaneity. Among the greatest Italian whites, without a shadow of a doubt.

Kaplja wine is a white made from a typical local blend of Chardonnay, Friuliano and Malvasia Istriana with vines resting on Ponka soils located 110-140 meters above sea level with southern exposure. No chemical or synthetic substances are used in the vineyard and low yields are maintained, while in the cellar, spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in contact with the skins and aging of the liquid for 36 months in 20/30 hectoliter barrels followed by 12 months of rest in the bottle are carried out.

The Kaplja white reveals itself in the glass with a bewitching golden glow. Nose of great complexity and definition where notes of peach, acacia honey, white flowers and toasted almonds alternate, descriptors that draw an extremely mouthwatering profile. The sip is filling, thanks to a creamy and opulent tactility due to the glyceric component of the liquid and its structure. Timeless classic.
