Flavor Profile
The 2024 vintage of The Prince was hand-harvested and underwent spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a 5-day skin maceration. The wine was aged partly in concrete eggs and partly in amphorae, and was bottled unfiltered.
On the nose, it shows exotic fruits — pineapple, cantaloupe, and citrus notes — accompanied by pear and quince. The palate is fresh, vibrant, and mineral-driven, revealing the truly unique character of Furmint.

PRODUCER INFORMATION
Producer: Matic Wines
Matic Winery is located in the Podravje wine-growing region, in the rolling hills of Štajerska (Styria), not far from Maribor. Matija Žerjav, known to many simply as Matic, is a young and passionate winemaker who manages the 8-hectare family estate with a fresh perspective while remaining deeply rooted in tradition.
Matic harvests all his grapes by hand and follows biodynamic farming principles. In the cellar, he relies on natural yeasts and spontaneous fermentation, with only minimal amounts of sulfur used when necessary. Most of his wines are matured in stainless steel, helping to preserve the lively acidity and freshness characteristic of Štajerska.
He is particularly proud of Šipon, the region’s most important grape variety, also known as Furmint. It is the basis of his distinctive sparkling wine, Mea Pet Nat. At the same time, Matic is not afraid to explore more traditional and experimental techniques, including extended skin maceration and maturation in clay and concrete vessels.
His approach is simple: work with his hands, follow his instincts, and let the vineyards speak. With a strong connection to both tradition and experimentation, Matic’s wines offer an exciting glimpse into the future of Štajerska.
