5 wines you should always have in your pantry
The world of wine is very diverse and varied. Our wine range is also deliberately wide, so that everyone can find the right wine for themselves. However, there are some of our wines that you will never go wrong with and are always worth having in your pantry. It happens to everyone at some point that a relative comes to visit us unexpectedly or we accept an invitation to a friend’s birthday party at the last minute and want to give them a bottle of wine as a gift. We have prepared a set of five indispensable wines in your pantry, with which you will definitely impress your friends and acquaintances.
KRASNO WHITE BLEND
Krasno white blend is a popular variety of Ribolla, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, three varieties that thrive in the Brda region. The Krasno wine line was designed to accompany modern cuisine and is best suited to this role. It is distinguished by its rich structure and fresh aromatic profile, which is why it covers a wide range of cuisines, and it is best paired with vegetable risottos, a variety of fish dishes, fish carpaccio and spicy white meat. A wine that will make you want another glass and can simply be described as “krasno” (wonderfull).
PINOT GRIGIO RAMATO BAGUERI
Pinot Grigio is an international variety that is becoming increasingly popular both abroad and in Slovenia. Pinot Grigio Ramato from the Bagueri line is a novelty that, due to its unique color and harmonious taste, was a great success among Bagueri superior wine lovers in 2022. It is a wine for wine lovers who expect more from their Pinot Grigio. It is a wine with a two-day maceration, which gives it a special copper color, from which the name “ramato” (Italian: Rame = copper) also comes from. The more specific structure also allows this wine to be paired with a wide range of dishes, from prosciutto, seafood dishes, white meat, and even Asian dishes. A wine that you will definitely remember.
KRASNO ORANGE
In recent years, orange wines have become increasingly popular and sought after. For those who are just entering and getting to know the world of orange wines, Krasno orange is the ideal entry point. The wine is a blend of three typical Brda varieties – Rebula, Malvasia and Sauvignon Blanc. We macerated it for one year, which gives it the indispensable character of orange wines, and at the same time, despite its complex aromatics, it is still pleasantly fresh and harmonious, but richer compared to our white wines. We recommend it with food with a stronger flavor, such as spicy chicken or spicy grilled vegetables, and it also goes well with popular Asian cuisine. The best choice for anyone who wants something truly special.
CABERNET SAUVIGNON BAGUERI SUPERIOR – CHAMPION
Cabernet Sauvignon has been one of the most popular red varieties in Slovenia for many years. Anyone who has tried our Cabernet Sauvignon Quercus, which is considered one of the most popular bottles in Slovenia, certainly has positive memories of it. Cabernet Sauvignon Bagueri Superior is its upgrade in the truest sense of the word. It has a strong and rich taste, which is the result of maturing this wine in oak barrels and barriques. It goes well with a wide variety of meat dishes and venison, steaks and Florentine steaks will be simply divine in the company of this strong wine. An excellent choice for all lovers of red wines.
SPARKLING MOSCATO SELECTION
Sparkling Moscato is one of our most popular sparkling wines. With its pleasant sweetness and aroma, it captivates everyone who is just entering the world of wine and is looking for something light, fruity and a little sweeter. It is especially popular with women, but it also has many fans among men. The secret lies in the right balance between sweetness and freshness of the intense taste at a lower alcohol content. We achieved this with a special production technique that preserves the original aroma of yellow Moscato. The delicate and lively bubbles are so pleasant in the mouth that we hardly get tired of them. A very pleasant sparkling wine to be enjoyed for two, even without culinary accompaniment, but otherwise it goes well with creamy desserts such as panna cotta and pancakes with strawberries and cream.
