Burja Noir 2022 Burja

Burja Noir is a red wine produced by Burja in Podnanos, in the Vipava Valley and obtained from pure Pinot Noir grapes harvested manually and coming from a soil located at about 200 meters above sea level and rich in marl, sandstone and shale. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and maceration in steel, subsequent refinement in large barrels for two years. Burja Noir is a spicy and mineral red wine, fruity and floral, full-bodied but fresh and lively, elegant tannins and a savory finish. Burja Noir reminds us of a great Burgundy red and the pairing with beef is immediate!

The Lavrencic family has been producing wine since 1499, and now it is up to Primoz, the latest generation to carry on the family tradition. He does it in a way that he defines as modern and traditional, concepts that for him coincide.

Burja climbs between wind and rock, and sets some production rules that cannot be derogated from:

• Plant integrity, rather than intervention
• Respect for local varieties
• Promote vineyard biodiversity
• Poor control in production processes

Primoz has a dream, which is becoming reality thanks to the contribution of many local winemakers, that of making the whole world know and appreciate the Terroir of the Vipava Valley, capable of offering absolute pearls.

Like the ones that Primoz produces!
