Description
Now run by Tomislav “Tomba” Voštinić—the Young Prince of Škrlet (pronounced Shkirlet)—Voštinić Klasnić was established in 1936, when Tomislav's great-grandfather planted the first vines of Škrlet in this area, some of which are still growing in the vineyards today and some of the oldest living Škrlet vines in existence. The winery is a beautiful and humble estate surrounded by vineyards and orchards, in the Moslavina region of Croatia. Tomislav's grandfather was a pioneer in reviving the Škrlet grape, and following in his footsteps, Tomislav has continued that quest. However, Tomba's grandfather also always told him that the best wine of the region for everyday drinking, was an equal blend of the two iconic white varietals of Moslavina: Škrlet and Graševina. So as an ode to both Tomba's grandfather, and these two prominent varietals—Ikons was born.
Although not certified, the estate is organically farmed, and all fermentations are done with native yeasts. An effortlessly refreshing 50/50 blend, with Škrlet bringing the aromatics and brightness, and Graševina adding depth and fruit, Ikons celebrates unity and brings the everyday wine of Moslavina to your table. Dangerously easy to drink, delicate tropical fruit and floral aromatics lead to a refreshing palate, showing flavors of papaya, starfruit, passion fruit and guava. Super refreshing with a smooth, softly textured finish.
