Vitovska 2019
From Carso, a sub-zone of Friuli with heavy Slavic influences, Skerk’s Vitovska is a wildly aromatic skin-macerated white wine. Sandy Skerk is a leader in the region, whose wines are known for their complexity. The Vitovska is fermented with native yeasts in used oak, resulting in a fresh and intriguing take on this obscure grape variety.
