The word “sauvage” illustrates gamy, earthy and forest floor flavors, as featured in the Roxanich Sauvage label: Dark, ripe fruits, plums, black currant, black pepper, cedar and tobacco- a warm autumn evening on the palate. “Sauvage” also references a wine fermented with indigenous yeasts.

The Roxanich Sauvage is bottled without filtration after up to 9 years in large wooden vats and barrels. It’s certainly one of the greatest wines Mladen Rožanić produced, delivering magnificent aromas of candied plums, currant jelly, dried rose petals, blackberry compote with hints of liquorice, medium to deep garnet in color. Full bodied, rich and mellow, it reveals a layer after layer of spice box flavors. Sauvage is rich, red and tangy and will be irresistible to lovers of Cabernet Sauvignon.
