Dalia - Trac Gewurtztraminer

In the cellar, Kristina takes a minimal-intervention approach to winemaking, utilising indigenous yeasts, spontaneous fermentation, natural tartaric stabilisation and limited sulphur additions. The `Trač` Gewürtztraminer spends 24 hours macerating on its skins before fermentation and is aged in stainless-steel tanks until the spring following harvest. Fresh and vibrant, this is an approachable style brimming with notes of lychee, white flowers and candied stone fruits. 

Dalia (derived from the Arabic for ‘grapevine’) was founded in 2021 as a collaboration between Kristina and a winery she’d previously consulted for, Vinarija Raj, in the Negotin Valley (Negotinska Krajina) of Eastern Serbia. A subregion of Timok, the Negotin Valley is close to the borders of both Bulgaria and Romania. The valley, described as a ‘treasure trove of modern Serbian wine’ by Caroline Gilby MW, enjoys a dry, sunny continental climate moderated by the Deli Jovan Mountain to the west and the Danube River to the east.
