About the Wine
Made from Rumeni Muscat, a.k.a. Yellow Muscat. Let's just add that to the growing list of all the Muscat grapes out there, shall we?
This is pretty intense stuff. We're not sure what's going on, but there's a lot of it. Freshly squeezed lemon juice, jasmine and rose, musk sticks and lychee all leapt out of the glass here. Somehow, despite all this, it's in no way over the top and it mellows out pretty quickly. It's juicy, it's light and that lick of tannin makes it dangerously food friendly - and dangerously drinkable.
Instinctively, South East Asian would be the choice of cuisine here. But what grows together goes together - try it with some traditional Slovenian idrijski žlikrofi (dumplings) or river trout.
About Gabernik 23
Janko Bogatic is the man behind Gabernik 23, based around the village of Ritoznoj in north east Slovenia, only 50-odd kms from the Austrian border and the town of Graz.
Janko has worked these steep slopes since the age of 10. Drawing from his years of experience on the land he strives to work hand-in-hand with nature to allow the vineyards to express their true potential. Minimal intervention in the wine cellar lets the terroir shine through. Working with unfashionable varieties like Yellow Muscat and Zweigelt, Janko wants to show that these grapes are much more than their reputations suggest.

We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
