2020 Kozlovic Malvazija

Istria, Croatia

This Malvazija 2020 (Malvasia Istriana) shows a nice pale golden colour. There is lovely, not too intense varietal character reminiscent of ripe peaches, bit of honey, touch of dried herbs and oriental spices. Complex, fine and defined. Dry on the palate with very good acidity levels and quite intense character. There is even certain lightness and lift in it. The character on the palate is even more complex than the nose suggest. It concludes in the long savoury aftertaste.
