Description

A white blend from the Brda hills of Slovenia, where the border with Italy's Friuli runs close and Ribolla Gialla has long roots, this is Movia's Veliko Belo (the name translates roughly to "big white"). The 2021 leans on Ribolla Gialla for the bulk of the blend (70%), rounded out with Pinot Gris (20%) and a touch of Sauvignon Blanc (10%). It is a wine built for texture as much as fruit.


Expect a smoky, savory edge here, dried herbs and stone dust wrapped around citrus-lifted nectarine and a flicker of gingery spice. It plays salty against sweet over a silken body, with brisk acidity and a crisp mineral thread pulling against a ripe core of orchard fruit. Floral notes drift through the middle, and the finish stretches long and contrasting, candied lime meeting tart green apple. This is Movia showing what it can do.

The 2021 Veliko Belo tempts the imagination with a smoky blend of dried herbs, stone dust, citrus-infused nectarines and gingery spice. It mixes salty and sweet over silken textures, with crisp minerality and brisk acidity contrasting a core of ripe orchard fruits. Pretty inner florals swirl throughout, as the 2021 leaves nuances of candied lime to mix with tart green apple through the long and contrasting finish. This is Movia at its best. It's a blend of 70% Ribolla Gialla, 20% Pinot Gris and 10% Sauvignon Blanc. (Vinous, October 2025)
