Descrizione

Light purple nuances on a ruby red background, a pure Pinot Noir.

Typical sweet and soft pleasures of Pinot Noir in a Slovenian key, with a pleasant calm trail of red berries, from raspberry in combination with ripe fruits from the undergrowth.

Dry in the mouth with hints of acid and tannins and a balanced body, it thus reveals a soft and velvety structure that gives the palate a sensation of relaxation for the senses.

Winery history

The winery bears the family nickname "Dolfo," and the estate's history is linked to the Skočaj family. The modern approach to production was established at the end of the 20th century, when wines labeled DOLFO first appeared on the market; the official page notes the appearance of DOLFO‑labelled bottles in 1989. Over the years the estate has expanded its vineyards and winemaking facilities in the Brda/Ceglo area.

Production philosophy

It favors manual vineyard care and cultivation practices that emphasize territorial quality; at the same time production is described as conventional, using natural organic fertilizers and paying careful attention to soil management and exposure.

Terroir and vineyards

It is located in Ceglo, in the Goriška Brda area, with vineyards that extend partly into Slovenia and partly into Italy. The local soils are characterized by the so-called "opoka", a calcareous/clayey sedimentary formation that contributes to the wines' sapidity; the vineyards are planted on terraces with sunny exposures and elevations in the area ranging from approximately 80 to 200 meters.

Awards and recognitions

Positive evaluations in specialized publications: for example, scores of up to approximately 91–92 points for some vintages in trade magazines and industry portals.
