PRODUCER: Martin Vajcner manages 7 hectares of vineyards in the Znojmo wine region. Specifically, 8 smaller vineyards where he cultivates in a certified organic mode. Nature itself determines how the wines will taste as a result he minimizes interventions in the cellar. At the same time, he tries to keep activity in harmony with nature. Healthy and living soil can produce grapes of the highest quality. He returns the pulp from the pressed grapes to the vineyard as fertilizer. By cultivating vineyards and working in the cellar, he burdens the environment as little as possible and reduces his carbon footprint to a minimum.
VINIFICATION METHOD: Grapes are hand-harvested, and semi-carbonically macerate for 10 days in neutral barrel prior to pressing and aging. Fermentation finishes in the bottle. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, no additional SO2.
TASTING NOTES: Medium bodied, dragon fruit, pineapple, and peaches and cream.
