Untouched by Light

Slovenian Sparkling Wine is making waves in the UK market, displaying quality from the big and small wineries to industry professionals and wine experts, but Slovenian have just launched a new bottle of Sparkling Wine that will draw people’s attention.

After the launch of Radgonske Gorice’s Untouched by Light Sparkling Wine, which has been harvested, produced, bottled, then enjoyed in complete darkness at the Glass of Bubbly Show in April at the Savory Hotel, this could be the very bottle that gets Slovenia more widely known in the UK.

Every step of the winemaking process is done in complete darkness, even the grape pickers wear night-vision goggles to avoid any light contact with the grapes during harvest at night, every step is either done at night or in complete darkness, the bottle in which the Sparkling Wine is bottled is black, and to make doubly sure they wrap the bottle in a black vacuum-sealed branded bag adding to the visual appeal.

A bottle like this is a big conversation topic, no one else in the world is doing it, so this is a big win for Slovenia and a foot in the door to the hectic UK market. You can buy a single bottle or go for the bundle which includes a bottle, black branded glasses.
