Gonc winery is a family tradition going back to the year 1936 when Peter Gonc’s great grandfather built their first wine cellar and planted the vineyard around it in the small town of Dobrovnik in Slovenia. After World War II his grandfather moved to the city Ptuj
where he started working in the Ptujska Klet - Ptuj wine cellar as a cellar cleaner and worked his way up to head winemaker and CEO of the oldest winery in Slovenia now know as Pullus. Peter’s father also worked at the same winery but on the side, he also planted 24 acres of vineyards to keep up the family tradition (now 28 acres total). When Peter came of age they built a new cellar in Ptuj and started Gdnc again. Peter is the 4th generation of winemakers and winegrowers in the family.
Bright ruby hue, great extraction and concen- tration, with aromas of bright confit cherry, red berries, and soft dark spices. On the palate the wine is juicy, round, and harmonious, with notes pronounced on the nose. Long lingering finish.
