Clai Wines

In 2016, a promising vintage led us to produce our Brombonero from carefully selected Refošk grapes. Coincidentally, we had just acquired new 500L Austrian oak barrels from the esteemed Stockinger cooperage, known as the “winemaker’s Stradivarius”. The natural pairing resulted in aging Brombonero in these new barrels. However, the unexpected taste profile emerged, with deeper notes of graphite and cedar imparted by the Stockinger barrels. After four years of aging, we decided to bottle this unique wine under the label of our sister restaurant, Stara Škola, dedicating it to the owner’s late father, who sadly passed away in 2020 and never had the chance to taste it. Now, it’s here for your enjoyment!
