Tasting Notes

Straw yellow with green reflections. Citrus, lime, and green apple on the nose, with white fruit, flowers, and fresh herbs. It rests about a year in steel tanks, which keeps the fruit bright and lively. Clean and fresh, with a lingering finish.

Serve & Pair

Serve chilled at 8 to 10°C (46 to 50°F). Pairs with grilled fish and seafood, oysters, salads with fresh herbs, white cheese, byrek, and roast chicken.

Why We Chose It

Very few wines in the world are made from Cëruja, which is reason enough to try it. What makes this one good is how fresh it tastes, bright citrus and herbs, from old vines that grow wild through the trees.
