What: Pubec / Young Wines from Štajerska Slovenia

Where: Festivalna dvorana, Ljubljana, Slovenia

When: November 8th 2023

What is all about 

The common denominator of the Pubec wine festival is young wine. We had a chance to taste wines from the 2023 vintage from 18 winemakers. This year there was a lot of rain and hail. That is why I expected wines with low alcohol, higher acids. But, some of the wines did not show a rainy vintage at all. 

My TOP 4

• Sauvignon & Sivi Pinot 2023, dry, 11.5%, Puklavec Family Wines, Štajerska Slovenia

• Muscat Ottonel 2023, off dry, 11%, Falot, Štajerska Slovenia

• Muscat Ottonel 2023, dry, 11%, Jaunik, Štajerska Slovenia

• Ranina 2023, dry, 12%, Steyer, Štajerska Slovenia
