Sara Rožanić has always worked in concert with her father, reliably choosing the experimental over the ordinary. A striking, innovative, medium-term macerated Chardonnay, each bottle is left in skin-contact from five to twenty-one days, depending on the vintage. When Chardonnay grapes arrive at the winery, they undergo destemming, wine mash is then transferred to fermentation vats for maceration. It extracts resulting in plenty of colors, aromas and flavors accumulated from the skins and the pits. After the wild yeast fermentation is completed, the Roxanich Sara 3/6 is reracked for long ageing in large wooden casks and vats. Sara 3/6 overwhelms with gorgeous amber hue and complex aromas of nutmeg, almonds and jasmine. A single taste explodes with freshness, citrus and minerality, with an unexpected directness, all riding a generous and full body. Rich, elegantly tannic and with a viscous texture, the Roxanich Sara 3/6 hits hard from the first sip and leaves with a long, nutty aftertaste.
