A pioneer in skin-contact wines, Radikon is praised by natural wine lovers all over for their aging ability, wild flavours and incredible depth of flavour.

Based on the far right of Italy right by the Slovenian border, Radikon wines undergo skin-contact maceration for a number of months before being aged in both barrel and later bottle.

How does Sivi from Radikon taste?

When pouring, you’ll be amazed by the amount of colour this Pinot Grigio… its like Hibiskus tea! And then on the nose: eucalyptus, strawberry, cranberry and lavender. Although not old, it’s already quite precise.

In taste: a bit like Old Fashioned with those orange zest sparks, a bit of kräuterlikör (herbal liqueur), with a faint bitterness at the end. Super tasty and interesting.
