Roxanich Zara 5/6 2010/11 (Roxanich winery)

Zara Rožanić, at a young age, is constantly evolving. Her passion is art, including her culinary skills, which surpass the scope and possibilities of her generation. Zara's palate is absolutely impressive. She cannot imagine a grape harvest without being involved in it.

Roxanich Zara 5/6 is a classic case of sibling rivalry with Mara 4/6, embodied in a bottle: Watching Mara's success, Zara burns with a desire to offer her interpretation. The result is a dizzying wild ride in a bottle: fresh and invigorating, with all the unrestrained energy that healthy competition between younger sisters can create.

If you allow it, Roxanich Zara 5/6 can surprise you in unexpected ways. It is a complex and layered wine that continues to transform and evolve throughout the evening. Can you imagine a blend of seven different grape varieties from the same vineyard: Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Vermentino, Glera, Friulano, Graševina?

Seven worlds realized in a new whole of refined amber wine. Even seven white varieties dressed in red - Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Vermentino, Glera, Friulano, Graševina.

Roxanich Zara 5/6 retains fruit maturity and pleasantly surprises with its dynamism on the palate. The prominent performance with secondary and tertiary aromas in the foreground is the result of extraction during the 90-day fermentation on the skins. Such wine is bottled without clarification and stabilization, after five years of careful maturation in wooden barrels.

Zara 5/6 is characterized by a spectacular range of aromas, from dried apricot, orange blossom, oriental spices, and saffron, as well as subtle hints of nuts. The yeasty and fruity presence is intensified. Initially cautious and gentle, and when it relaxes, it reveals its complexity, with a unique tannic structure that opens up new sensations in the aftertaste.

Roxanich Zara 5/6 is distinctly dry and full-bodied, carried by irresistible freshness, exceptional amber color, and tannic presence. It is dedicated to wine connoisseurs who know how to enjoy the raw energy of a stimulating, yet meditative wine crafted with love.
