Planika's museum of Soča valley mountain-pasture life and cheesemaking: an old fire-heated cheese kitchen, an alpine pasture hut with its equipment, and a cellar where old Tolminc is aged. Shop on site.
Rebula and Rebula-led blends left on their skins gain tannin and a dry, grippy, savoury texture that an aged Tolminc, sweet and piquant, can lean on, while the wine's acidity cuts the fat of the firm paste.
Albuminska skuta is a soft whey cheese, mild and naturally sweet from the lactose left in the whey. A dry, light to medium-bodied Rebula with high acidity lifts the soft curd without covering it, on bread or with herbs.
Fresh acidity in a full-bodied Rebula cuts the fat of a firm wheel, and the wine's weight stands up to a paste that grows more intense with age. Best with a Tolminc aged well beyond the 60-day minimum.
Address: Gregorčičeva ulica 32, 5222 Kobarid, Brda
