Azienda Agricola Skerlj - Kristina & Matej Skerlj
We are two young farmers, Kristina and Matej. With the help of our parents Just and Danila we accepted a challenge: to offer those who come to visit us in Sales, on the Trieste Karst, a little bit of our territory, our flavors and our history.
Grandparents, skilled farmers, taught us to take care of the land. Our work is concentrated in the vineyard, in contact with healthy and ripe grapes, and in the family farm.
The Skerlj farm is located in Sales (Salež), a hamlet of just 300 inhabitants in the Trieste Karst. It is an ancient village, which dates back to the Iron Age, where villages were built in elevated positions and fortified with walls.
In every season of the year, these places have a particular charm.
We work by hand in the vineyard and pay careful attention to the vineyard and grapes.
Malvasia, Vitovska and Terrano: three wines, cradled for two years in oak barrels, in a cellar dug into the stone, in a natural environment at constant temperature and humidity. Bottling without filtration, a direct and no frills passage, from the vineyard to the bottle.
