Rujno Rosso

Josko Gravner is a leading winemaker in the Collio Goriziano region, in northeastern Italy, on the border with Slovenia. He is known for his unique, long-lived wines, made using ancient, minimal intervention methods, and is especially associated with the production of orange wines, particularly his Ribolla. He is considered one of the fathers of the modern amber/orange wine movement. All of Josko Gravner's wines have been fermented for six to seven months in large amphorae (qvevri) imported from Georgia. These are buried in the cellar in the traditional way, and need no temperature control and little intervention. 

A selection of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon produced only in the finest vintages in very limited quantity (1700 bottles); a five week cuvaison in open oak vats and, as always, only wild yeasts and no temperature control; aged in oak barrels for seven years and then aged in bottle for an additional seven years before release; never fined or filtered.
