Dario Princic Bianco NV
The Wine
Made from 60 year old vines farmed in an organic and holistic manner, the grapes see a 22 day maceration, fermenting in chestnut barrels and then 24 months of aging.
Bianco NV is Dario's introductory wine, crafted initially for his Japanese clientele. It's an exotic, spice-laden, and masterfully produced skin-contact wine. There's a complexity at play, as it guides you through a labyrinth of sensations. Dark in hue (no need for concern), yet vibrant and lively, it defies expectations of fruitiness, pivoting to a dry conclusion with hints of beeswax, alpine herbs, and a subtle touch of botrytis. This stable wine promises to maintain its character for several days after opening. Go on, turn your world upside down with this one...” TC

About the Wine Maker 
Dario Princic's winery is located in the village of Oslavia, just north of the town of Gorizia, northwest of Trieste and right up against the border with Slovenia. The vineyard is some 8 hectares, located on limestone-clay soils called Ponka. He is famous for his white wines that are vinified with long skin maceration according to the ancient traditions. The approach produces a distinctive orange hue and there is no doubt, Dario is a reference point for the production of this style globally.
