More about this wine from Štajerska-Slovenia, Eastern Slovenia
Calling all Bowie fans. Here is a bottle we found just for you. Peter Gönc, one of our favorite lesser-known but up-and-coming winemakers from Slovenia, created this half-Chard half-Riesling vino, promising to take wine lovers on an extraordinary trip. The Starman wine label is designed with a lighting bolt, paying homage to the late rocker’s alter ego Ziggy Stardust and his eponymous song. And the grapes were handpicked under the morning stars, ensuring the journey to the bottom of this out-of-this-world, natural orange wine (which is unaltered and unfiltered) will be anything but boring.
