Vinification
Kabaj's Merlot from Goriška Brda is made by Jean-Michel Morel with long maceration, part of the fermentation in buried Georgian qvevri, then several years in old oak barrels and bottle before release — the 2016 comes to market fully mature.
Winery Story
Kabaj is Jean-Michel Morel's estate in Slovenian Brda on the Italian border — a benchmark for skin-contact whites and patient, old-school reds released only when ready.
Vineyard Story
Vineyard parcels in Goriška Brda provide the fruit; soils and local climate shape the texture and balance you find in the glass.
