Pinela
One of the oldest Vipava wine grape varieties, more feminine than Zelen wine, but no less interesting, fresh and popular. And it has been so for centuries. The wine boasts with gentle bright green-yellow colour, intense bouquet reminiscent of various flowers and fruits, especially citrus fruits and peaches. The flavour is rounded off with pleasant and fresh acids, bringing together other characteristics of this noble wine and making it harmonious. Because the wine is easy-drinking, it goes well with home-made prosciutto and other meat dishes, fish and seafood dishes.
Zelen
This indigenous Vipava wine is of bright green-yellow colour, hence its name (Zelen means green). It is an aromatic, white and lively wine. Due to its intense aroma, it used to be dubbed “fragrance”. The vine-friendly cultivation emphasizes its fragrant character. The bouquet is both soft and bold at the same time, pleasant and stunningly aromatic. Its distinguishable flavour is an experience of elegance, richness and harmony. Together with the Pinela wine, they represent a traditional wine pair, the wine-growing Vipava valley cannot do without. The wine goes well with simple local (Vipava) cuisine dishes and other light Mediterranean dishes, potato dishes and home-made pasta dishes.
Rebula
This old varietal, unjustly neglected in the past decades, gives an excellent wine of bright green-yellow colour, ideal to be served as an aperitif. Its freshness is pleasant and elegant, while its bouquet is reminiscent of flowers and fresh fruits. Usually we drink it in a year or two, but harvests in the last decade prove that, if properly cultivated (with as little interference as possible), it is possible to make an outstanding Rebula wine, completely different from those made several decades ago. The flavour of the wine is soft and elegant, appealing and special at the same time. Its freshness is harmonious; therefore, it pairs well with local cuisine dishes and white meat dishes, pasta, potatoes and other light side dishes.
