Sunday 13 and Monday, March 14 the Hotel Slovenia in Portorose (Slovenia) will host the third edition of the Festival of Malvasia with awards, workshops and laboratories. As explained by the journalist Liliana Savioli on Italia a Tavola "Some sources report that already in 1300 there was the cultivation of Malvasia in Istria. Therefore since 1998 the Association of Slovenian Istria winegrowers organizes one of the biggest international events to spread wine culture and the strengthening of viticulture and winemaking in this part of Slovenia and the Mediterranean. "
Among the many winegrowers present there will be also Parovel with its Istrian Malvasia, a native of the wine grape variety Karst-Kras.
Of ancient Greek origin, Malvasia has earned a particularly prominent place. It is a fairly adaptable vine but greatly thankful to the sun, which produces a fruity and slightly aromatic wine, straw-yellow color, open and complex nose on exotic ripe fruit and fresh flowers. The Istrian Malvasia Parovel leaves a full and fresh mouth centered on the fruit and the thick cream with a final touch of citrus, harmonious and typical and a clean, long finish. It is recommended with meats, fish, soups or white meats.
The Istrian Malvasia Parovel named PÔJE derived affirmation "ona poje" that in Slovenian means "she sings," because our Malvasia is a pleasantly full and very expressive wine, rich of melodious aromaticity.
Parovel takes part to the 10th Exhibition of Typical and Quality Extra Virgin Oils with its three evo oils Mackè, Rozò and Ul'ka combined with some tasty creations by Al Pescaturismo, born in 1950, one of the first fishtourism farm at the national level, set by the sea in the picturesque context of Villaggio del Pescatore in Trieste.
So come and visit us, you will find us in Hall NordioN20, from 5 to 8 March 2016 where we will immerse in the atmosphere of bianchera.
