WINE LINE

PAVÓ

There are no compromises in the Pavó wine line. The grapes are harvested exclusively from our best vineyards: Breg and Cerovo, which are characterized by excellent sunlight exposure and moderate growth on modest soil, which is a mixture of flysch and opoka. The vintage, location, and even the oak barrels—and their makers—are carefully selected with a single goal in mind: to express the excellence of Brda and offer outstanding quality.

Pavó white

The yellow colour with gold fragrances indicates that the wine was matured in the finest wooden barrels. The aroma confirms the contact between wine and barrels. The bouquet is very delicate, elegant and expressive, from yeast to vanilla, caramel and well integrated oak notes. Acidity and tannins are nicely balanced and contribute to its character. The Chardonnay character is dominant, and fits nicely with Malvasia, which makes the wine wider and more elegant. Persistent and elegant wine, mature and youthful at the same time, with multi-layer aroma and exceptionally long aftertaste. Definitely a wine to surprise you and remember for a long time after tasting it.

Pavó Merlot

A serious wine, dark ruby in color and with a slightly lighter edge that successfully covers its age. It promises a full body and intense experience starting from its apperance. The bouquet is rich, reminiscent of dried black cherries, pencil case (ink), old tobacco, dark chocolate, warm spices (nuts, cinnamon, vanilla), plum jam. A full, but not heavy taste, with pleasant tannins and acidity that moderate the strength of the alcohol. Slightly spicy, mainly fruity, but with lots of additional spices and herbs, from anise to vanilla. A pleasant aftertaste, mostly fruity, reminiscent of blackcurrants and small red fruits.

The wine is a suitable accompaniment for dishes with tomatoes, including pizza with cheese fantasy, for spicy grilled vegetables, lasagna, pancakes with spinach and ragout, spicy chicken meat and feathered game, pork chops, the classic "ossobuco". As of mushrooms, it pairs best with morel and truffles like agaricus mushrooms and parasols. In general, it is not overly picky and can also be offered with medium-strong cow's and sheep's cheeses and dry meats.

Pavó Pinot Noir

Characterized by a translucent ruby color, with slight brick shades, the wine embodies a combination of aromas including ripe fruit, tobacco, wood and chocolate. A bouquet that inspires and conjures up a special experience. In the mouth, the wine is dry, with the right amount of acidity, soft tannins and refined elegance. The Pinot Noirs from the Primorska winegrowing region in Slovenia are generally more complex, but in our cellar we decided to upgrade the classic Pinot Noir with softness and tenderness. ​​

It goes well with lamb ribs in herb wrap, foal steak with herb butter, white mould cheeses.

Pavó Cristatus

The colour is gentle yellow with light golden shades. In the glass, the foam develops well and together with fine sparkling bubbles proves that you are drinking wine that was ripening for a long time on fine lees. White flower, citrus, white peach notes and aroma of the bread crust stand out on the nose. On the palate it is fresh and fleshy, leaving a long, balanced and pleasant aftertaste.

The Cristatus is an elegant vintage sparkling wine that satisfies both lovers of fresh and slightly more complex wines.

This wine can liven up any get-together with canapés and asparagus or some other tempura vegetables, while keeping its place on the table even with more elaborate dishes such as sushi, sashimi, sea bass tartar, and the even more challenging raw shrimp tails, oysters, rice with peas (rice-bizi) and strawberries.
