Untouched By Light

Untouched By Light

Experience in total darkness

Untouched by Light it's not just the world's first sparkling wine made in total darkness - it's an experience, which requires a very special way of tasting. That's why we designed two unique tastings, which emphasize its character and provide an exceptional experience:

  1. Preservation of authenticity: We use special measures to limit the access of light to the sparkling wine, so that every sip is truly authentic, clean and "untouched" by light. In this way, we ensure that its quality remains intact until the moment you taste it.
  2. Sharpening the senses: Our tasting is designed to prepare your taste buds for an intense perception of taste nuances. As the sparkling wine gradually reacts with the light in the glass, you can experience subtle changes in its aromas and flavors.


Join us on this extraordinary journey from darkness to light and discover how unique a sparkling wine experience can be.

Light is born in darkness

Untouched by Light is a sparkling wine created in complete darkness. The grapes for it are picked at night in the vineyards of Radgon, and then ripen in old cellars where light does not penetrate. It is bottled in 99.8 % black glass and packed in black foil to preserve its uniqueness. It is tasted in complete darkness, where all the senses are awakened and reveal the finest nuances of its taste.

Untouched by Light

Raziskave
kažejo, da izpostavljenost vina dnevni
svetlobi ali umetni osvetlitvi privede do tega, kar bi lahko označili kot »zaradi
svetlobe spremenjeno aromo«. Zato smo se odločili potopiti se v temo in v njej
pripraviti Untouched by Light. Ta penina je narejena izključno iz chardonnaya
po klasični metodi z zorenjem v steklenicah.

Vino zori v naših kleteh, nedotaknjeno od
zunanjega sveta – v popolni odsotnosti svetlobe. Med trgatvijo,
pretresanjem steklenic in pakiranjem uporabljamo očala za nočno gledanje. Ko
vino zapusti klet, je zaščiteno v temni, za svetlobo neprepustni steklenici,
pakirani v vakuumsko zaprti vrečki, ki prepreči dostop kakršnekoli dodatne
svetlobe ali stik z zrakom.

We recommend that you enjoy this wine in complete darkness in good company, because the best things happen in the dark. 🙂

Night hrvest – Harvesting in the dark

Untouched by Light – the world's first sparkling wine made, sold and tasted in complete darkness. Our new brand available for pre-orders at untouchedbylight.com.

Research
shows that the exposure of wine to daylight or artificial lighting results in
light-struck aromas. For that reason we have turned to the dark side and started
producing Untouched by Light made from the selected Chardonnay grapes by using
the famous inside-the-bottle French fermentation method.

The wine
ages in our caves, untouched by the outside world – in complete absence of
light. We use night vison glasses during harvest, bottle rotation and
packaging. Once out of the cave, the wine will be protected in a black
lightproof bottle packed in a vacuum-sealed bag blocking any additional light
or air contact.

We strongly recommend that you taste this wine in pitch darkness in good company, because the best things happen in the dark. 🙂
