A dry, aged wine that matures for 1 year on coarse lees using the “battonage” method in barrique barrels (225L). The harvest is exclusively manual and carried out when the grapes are at full physiological ripeness. The wine, full in flavor and body, evokes tropical fruits, with passion fruit being the most prominent. The authenticity of the vineyard’s location and micro-terraces make it truly special.

Pliberšek Wines

This boutique winery is located in Styria, specifically in Svečina, nestled among picturesque wine-growing hills and in close proximity to the Austrian Wine Road. We take great pride in our renovated farm building from 1902, which now houses a rural tourism facility offering traditional hospitality. Our wine selection is dominated by still, fresh, dry wines known for their varietal character and elegance. In 2024, we introduced our first sparkling wine from the 2022 vintage, produced using the traditional method. A smaller portion of our production includes wines aged in wooden barrels, where we enhance the wine’s body and depth. Our wine story is built on white grape varieties grown in vineyards aged between 20 and 30 years, most of which are planted on marl soils. The most prominent varieties are Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Rhine Riesling, and Welschriesling. At our estate, we create an environment where wine and food come together, fostering an atmosphere and aura that lingers long after the meal is forgotten and words fade away.
