i. Biography
Miha Bati’s work at Batič Winery in Šempas, Slovenia is built around biodynamic wine handled with patience and control. In the cellar, the method stays close to the material: extended maceration at uncontrolled temperatures, indigenous yeast fermentation, and fermenting and aging in local Slovenian oak. The style that follows is shaped by place and process, with clarity and precision kept ahead of ornament.
The Path
Today, Miha is winemaker of Batič Winery.
The Work Today
The cellar method is deliberate and highly specific, with Miha Bati describing its aim in plain terms: “Our desire is to create a very, very clear wine.” That clarity functions as a working principle, guiding decisions around time, texture, and expression. His other line sets the frame for that approach: “The most precious and purest wine is born from only one idea. The idea of Nature.” Together, the two statements point to a practice that treats restraint as a tool, and the cellar as a place to carry forward what nature has already begun.
Signature
Miha Bati’s signature wines include Marlon Batič cuvée. Within that work, distinction comes from careful selection rather than excess. The signature reads as an expression of method: patient, structured, and kept legible by the material itself.
In Their Words “The most precious and purest wine is born from only one idea. The idea of Nature.” “Wine varieties are for a winemaker what colours are for a painter.”
Acclaim
For Miha Bati, variety is a working palette: “Wine varieties are for a winemaker what colours are for a painter.” The line maps a craft logic built on choice, discipline, and responsibility. In that sense, the recognition around his work sits in both the cellar and the thinking behind it — in a practice that keeps wine in conversation with nature, place, and process.
