Oh dear, it seems this wine and my palate haven't had their rendezvous yet. Maybe I was letting the wine breathe, or perhaps I was just taking another sip elsewhere. 😉
Fear not, dear wine enthusiast! This bottle's moment in the spotlight is coming soon. In the meantime, why not uncork your own adventure with it? After all, the best wine stories are those we create ourselves. Cheers to new tastings on the horizon! 🥂
Paraschos
At a glance
- Evangelos Paraschos is a winemaker from Italian/Slovene border with Greek origin. Together with his kids he runs the winery. The brothers are true polyglots: they speak Greek with their father, Italian between themselves, Slovene with their workers, and English with most of their clients.
- He fell in love with wines of his neighbours and that inspired him to start making wines.
- 7 hectares of vineyards growing on unique soil called "Ponca", based on marlstone rich in minerals of Eocene origin.
Evangelos Paraschos was running a family restaurant. This is where he tasted and fell in love with the wines of his neighbours - Gravner and Radikon. This inspired him to start a winery in the 1990s.
Today, the winery is run by brothers Alexis and Jannis Paraschos and their father Evangelos. With Greek origin and the Italian/Slovene border situation, the brothers speak Greek with their father, Italian between themselves, Slovene with their workers, and English with most of their clients.
The 7 hectares owned by Paraschos are divided among 10 terraced vineyards in Slatnik, between San Floriano and Oslavia, on a typical and unique soil called "Ponca", based on marlstone rich in minerals of Eocene origin. The family cultivates Ribolla Gialla, Friulano, Malvasia Istriana, Pinot Grigio, Merlot and Pinot Noir.
