Aleksander and Patrik Zavec are the third generation of a winemaking family in Slovenia’s Haloze hills. Their old vineyards are spread across four locations, each giving the brothers another part of the landscape to work with. They make wines with little intervention, keeping the emphasis on where the grapes grow. Furmint and Pinot Noir offer two different ways into their corner of Slovenian wine.
