Bottled in the exceptional Pinot Noir vintage year of 2008, the Roxanich Pinot Noir is a true ambassador of its namesake. The wine is bottled without filtration after 6 years of ageing in large wooden barrels.

An outstanding member of Mladen Rožanić’s Philosophy range, his Pinot Noir is made for true believers of spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts - a rare minimal intervention, long aged natural wine.
Pinot Noir is the dominant red wine grape of Burgundy, now adopted in wine regions all over the world. It was brought to Istria by Napoleon’s soldiers during their most glorious times. This wine reveals an aromatic panorama, while the fresh, almost cold finish, puts a particularly dynamic end to the tasting.

The variety’s elusive charm has carried it to all manners of vineyards. The name Pinot Noir is derived from the French words for “pine” and “black”, complementing perfectly Istria’s own nature, with its impressive pine trees all over the peninsula.

Translucent cherry red in color, the Roxanich Pinot Noir offers beautiful, discreet fruity aromas, floral notes and delicate hints of woodiness, typical for the Pinot Noir grape.

Somewhat uniquely, Mladen recommends the Roxanich Pinot Noir be enjoyed in one of two ways: carefully decanted and separated from the sediment per tradition, thus retaining the wine’s ‘true’ ruby-red clarity - or shaken with the sediment distributed throughout the wine, leaving the bottle opaque and cloudy. This Pinot Noir is a bold challenge to natural wine lovers to sample a new and unconventional way of tasting this diamond in the Roxanich range.

Roxanich is an artisan winery of rare, long aged, premium, natural wines, from ancient Venetian lands. Rožanić family’s wine adventure in Istria began 30 years ago. Roxanich is an artisan winery of rare, long aged, premium, natural wines, from ancient Venetian lands. Since the beginning our focus has been an uncompromising attitude towards quality and to produce authentic wines in harmony with nature. The Swiss entrepreneur Mladen Rožanić, founded his avantgarde winery in Motovun with single estate vineyards in Bušura and Bačva, Istria, and runs it still today personally with his six daughters, the eponymous Sorelle, with focus on uncompromising quality. Mladen Rožanić is perhaps best described as the first movie director of wine. He displays his own handwriting - outsider in the wine business - thinking honest but big, and creating equally honest but big wines. He creates spaces for taste-jumps never seen before, delicate and elegant, unified in one single glass of wine. No winemaker has shaped the natural wine scene like Mladen Rožanić in recent years. With a maximum of knowledge, he brings wines to bottles with a minimum of intervention. Today every Roxanich wine is a reflection of the magical place where it was created and the strict natural, organic philosophy behind it. Roxanich wines are produced in small, exclusive quantities, which stubbornly counter today’s fast, aggressive commercial production outputs. No matter what your preference is, you will find a perfect bottle for any occasion. Our selection of 20 labels, including a new sparkling wine and a fortified wine, ranges from light and refreshing whites and rosés, to rich, long aged and macerated white, orange and red wines. Our exclusive showrooms are located at Brand New Wines in Zurich, Switzerland, and inside the new Winery and Design Hotel in Motovun, Istria.
