Radovan Šuman
Modri Pinot 2019
Pinot Noir
Zavrh, Slovenia
Mind bending Pinot Noir from the Balkans—Rado’s wines are really unlike anything else. I remember being incredibly excited for this wine the day that it arrived in October and opened it that evening. It was pretty unhinged, and while it’s not exactly “tame” now, it’s already settled down in a glorious way, its sharpness up top balanced by a rich bottom layer of forest umami, with ephemeral red and slightly spiced fruits and soft tannins occupying the mid range. Far out and completely special.
