Montiron<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Medea is the true expression of Istria, we want to introduce you to Montiron which achieves the full potential of Istrian Malvasia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montiron is a wine with an exceptional pedigree. Medea Winery tells the story of a nearly 50-year-old vineyard located at the very south of the peninsula where a Malvasia very much fit for aging is grown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vineyard occupies a grand cru position near \u0160i\u0161an. The grapevines here are of an old biotype, planted at a density of only about three thousand vines per hectare. They grow on terra rossa soil which is rich in layered stone, giving the wine a recognizable minerality which is expressed through the optimal ripeness of the grapes. Ideal climatic conditions – dominated by sunshine throughout most of the day and excellent aeration of the vineyards – provide the basis for this structured wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
