Ante Sladic Debit Oya Noya

Tasting Notes:  "From a small family winery at some altitude and inland, this is a skin-fermented "orange" wine, but does not pour overtly orange, more of burnished gold colour. This is well balanced, complex and intriguing! The grape here is the local debit, which deserves real credit. The nose shows melon/starfruit, subtle tea and jasmin notes - exotic but not overt. It is medium-full bodied, rounded with some expectation of sweetness, yet it comes off dry and even a bit tannic thanks to the skin contact."  David Lawrason - Wine Align 2021 - 94 pts
