Today the Pinela grape can be found only in the Vipava Valley. As the cultivating ground it prefers marls and sandstones, placed on the sides with plenty of sun, where the wind quickly dries the dew and humidity between the luxuriant vines. The fruit, which is a combination of the carefully picked quality grapes and the experience of traditional winemakers, is a vintage wine of a pale yellow colour with a slight green sheen. A fruity flavour and a subtle bouquet that emanate from the wine accompany a distinctive taste. Because of its savoury and pleasant freshness, which is a result of a slightly higher acidity, it pours almost by itself. It goes best with warm starters and vegetable dishes, but we also recommend it always when pasta or white meat is served with cheese or cream sauces that have a slightly sweeter taste. Pinela is a wine from the past, which was unjustly kept in the background for a long period of time. But recently, the Pinela wine has entered another golden age and gaining admiration among the winemakers and lovers of vintage wines. It therefore deserves to be called the wine of the future. 12% Alc.
