About Us
About UsWIPACH Wine Estate
We are a rather small
family-run boutique winery.
We believe in natural methods of processing the grapes. We are certain that the
highest quality only goes
hand in hand with a complete commitment. We aspire to our wines being natural
and people-friendly.
The name WIPACH is an old Celtic name for Vipava. The word derives from two
short celtic words, »WIP« (a
valley) and »ACH« (a rock) meaning »Valley beneath the rocks«.
Wipach wines are made acoording to the method called bâtonnage (periodic lees
stirring during the time
the wine is being aged on its lees). Thus, through natural processes in wine,
its cream-like texture and smooth,
intense flavour are highlighted. On the other hand, lactic-acid deacidification
ensures the wine to be soft and
agreeably buttery. No artificial flavours and colouring agents are used, which
makes wine natural and safe.
Almoust all our wines are aged in barrels, barriques, which brings out the
fruity aroma and enriches the
colour of the wine. Being a small boutique winery we only bottle our wines.
