Dried apricot, orange marmalade, walnut, beeswax, and a long, grippy tannic finish with incredible savory depth. A masterclass in what skin-contact white wine can be.\u003cbr\u003ePairing: Rich fish dishes, roasted pork, aged hard cheeses, charcuterie, or anything with enough flavor to match its extraordinary presence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRadikon \"Slatnik\" is the entry point into one of the most important and influential natural wine estates in the world. Founded by Stanko Radikon in Oslavia on the Slovenian border of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Radikon is widely credited — alongside neighbor Josko Gravner — with reviving the ancient practice of long skin-contact maceration for white wines in the modern era, inspiring an entire global movement of orange wine production. Stanko passed away in 2016, and the estate is now run with equal dedication by his son Saša. \"Slatnik\" — named after the Slovenian word for the estate's sweet-water spring — is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc, spending several months on skins in open-top wooden fermenters before aging for years in large Slavonian oak barrels with zero additions and no filtration. Released only when Saša deems it ready. The 2022 is already showing remarkable complexity and will continue to evolve for years. This is not just a bottle of wine — it is a piece of history.","brand":"Radikon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47193041830037,"sku":null,"price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/1718\/0053\/files\/RadikonIGTVeneziaGiuliaSlatnik2022.jpg?v=1775360295","url":"https:\/\/gcfwines.com\/products\/radikon-igt-venezia-giulia-slatnik-2022-750-ml-orange-wine-13-5-abv","provider":"Good Clean Fun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
