The complex bouquet of fragrant pear, peach, lime, orange and blossom continues onto the soft palate, which pleasantly combines creaminess from the oak with a long-lasting mineral finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grapes for this wine are grown at altitudes ranging between 80-200 metres above sea level. The vineyards are terraced and face south-east and west. The 10-30 year old vines are trained using the single Guyot method and are planted at densities of 4,000 - 5,000 vines per hectare, on a mixture of flysch, marlstone and sandstone soils. The climate here is sub-Mediterranean and experiences a mixture of warm sea air and the influence of cold winds from the Alps.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe hand-picked and destemmed Rebula grapes spent 4 hours on skins before being fermented in 4,000 litre casks at controlled temperatures of 16-20°C to preserve freshness. To add structure and complexity, the wine was matured on fine lees for one year in 225 litre old French barrels and for a further year in large Slavonian oak casks, with regular bâtonnage, initially twice a week and later once a month. The wine underwent fining and filtration before being bottled for release.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Gašper wine estate is a joint venture between a local co-operative and the Čarman family, who have been in the hospitality and wine industry for over 50 years. The estate is in Goriška Brda, an area within Collio that stretches into Slovenia from Friuli Venezia Giulia, in northeast Italy. The climate here is ideally suited to viticulture, with its proximity to the Adriatic Sea and the Alps providing dry, warm summers and cooling breezes during the crucial ripening period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64677179031929,"sku":"124109121","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/GasperRebulaSelection.png?v=1790054743","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/gasper-rebula-selection-2021","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
