Production method
The story of our Quercus wines starts in the vineyards of our winegrowing families, who cultivate the vineyards for them according to sustainable production principles.
The grapes we use to produce our Quercus wines are carefully selected, pressed, and then sent to production under reductive conditions, with minimum oxygen. The must is chilled to 8 ˚C and needs two days to settle. After 48 hours, we decant it and leave it to ferment at 14 ˚C. The entire process takes place in a stainless-steel container, where the wine is in constant contact with lees, stirred according to the battônage method.
After that, wines mature under the watchful eye of our leading oenologist Darinko Ribolica. White wines are left in stainless-steel tanks for 6 months, while red wines take a little longer to mature in large oak barrels.
Characteristics
These contemporary wines, characterised by full and fresh flavours, are perfectly described in the words of our oenologist Darinko Rebulica:
“This is a modern type of wine, which is popular in the West, mainly in England and Western Europe. They are appreciated for their pure fruitiness with no complex additives. When you open a Quercus wine in a good company, you will not stop at one glass.“
