The 2023 Šember Vučjak Riesling is golden in color with greenish hues; although unfiltered, it appears perfectly clear in the glass if poured carefully. It offers a delicate, lingering aroma reminiscent of ripe fruit and stones fresh from the sea. The taste is delicious and long-lasting, inviting a slow, unhurried pace. It paired beautifully with oven-roasted trout and assorted vegetables, while a classic pairing would be lightly seasoned roast chicken. A glass of this wonderfully serene wine is also perfect for enjoying before bed in intimate company.
