Ya-Yeh is composed of 100% Sauvignon Blanc fermented and aged in concrete eggs with two weeks of skin contact. These egg-shaped fermenters preserve acidity and encourage lees suspension, yielding a textured wine with plenty of body. Why the chicken on the label, you ask? Because eggs are the perfect shape - and also the perfect food (despite the fact they seem to be in short supply these days.)

Matija Žerjav - aka Matic - is a third generation winemaker, who took over his family’s vineyard at the tender age of 24.
The winemaking area in Štarjeska is in the “mountain wine zone,” and it gets very cold here, with a strong diurnal shift.
The property’s 9 hectares of vines are farmed organically, with occasional biodynamic farming practices.
The wines are kept in an old cellar from 1852 that is completely underground.
