Pullus Haložan Red

Vinification: Made from perfectly ripe grapes that were picked by hand three times over the span of September. All varieties were picked and fermented separately. Controlled cold fermentation with 2-3 weeks of skin maceration, and undergoing full malolactic fermentation. Blended, coarsely fined and filtered before bottling.

Tasting Notes: Juicy and bright, with nose of dark forest berries and cherry. Elegant medium body, bright red fruit acidity, smooth mouthfeel and gentle tannins. This wine is fresh and fruit packed with sour cherry, strawberry and a touch of middle eastern spices.

Haložan blend is one of the most traditional local wines in Štajerska. Haložan Red is a new addition that highlights the typical varietals of the Haloze region, made for daily consumption, in a simple, fresh field blend of local red grapes. There is no specific formula to this blend, it is slightly different every year. What is consistent is the fact that it is an impeccably easy-to-drink red wine that pairs fantastically with all typical Styrian dishes. A tremendous red wine for the table, can be chilled, and enjoyed with or without food.
