Santa Lucia Malvazija is 100% Malvazija Istriana from a single vineyard Santa Lucia. Santa Lucia would be the wine where Malvazija shows the sheer potential of beloved Istrian treasure, its heights, its beauty. This is also the wine with potential for ageing for at least a decade.

It displays lovely medium deep golden colour. Medium intense on the nose, showing fine ripe yellow fruits, peaches, gingerbread, wet stone with gentle smoky notes coming from oak aging. There is a gentle perfume note at the back and some citrusy notes enhancing freshness. Sophisticated and layered. No need to rush when opening a bottle. Give it the time and air and it will surprise you with new sensations.

Dry on the palate, full bodied with creamy texture. Aroma on the palate rich almost luscious showing maturity and plenty of ripeness without a hint of being overripe. It is intense in the mouth, aroma lingers on the palate and fills it up completely. Finish is long, ripe and rich. Wine for connoisseurs with the potential of ageing for more than 10 years.
