Description
Burja Bela 2020
Burja Bela is an unfiltered and authentic Slovenian white wine. Golden yellow colour. Pleasant bouquet of white flowers, honey and ripe apricots. The dry and medium-bodied palate has a rich texture, lively streak of acidity and beautiful fruit taste. Ripe tropical and stone fruit flavours over a mineral backbone that extends into a long aftertaste.
Blend of 40% Malvasia, 30% Rebula, 20% Laški Rizling and 10% other indigenous varieties. The fruit comes from Burja Estate vineyards in Vipava Valley, Slovenia. The vineyards are treated according to the principles of biological and biodynamic production.
