This is an easy going, glou-glou style white wine.
Total Production: 3300 bottles
Age of Vines: 19 years
Yield: 27 hl/ha
Soil: Loess and black soil
Varieties: Gewurtztraminer
Vinification Notes: The grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed. The juice ferments in 7 year old 600 liter barrels for about 45 days, in contact with the skins for the first 4 days. Elevage takes place in the same barrels for 14 months. The wine is bottled unfiltered, unfined, and with zero sulfur added.
Milan Nestarec has quickly become the star winemaker of the Czech republic during the time we’ve been working with him. His wines display so much life, vitality, and originality, that they have become very sought after all over the world in a very short time. We are honored to have been working with his wines since 2014. The wines we are selling now represent the full evolution of his original vision: a full range of wines, from quaffable yet energetic and inexpensive wines like the forks and knives and liter bottlings of Nach and Bel, to the amazingly expressive skin fermented wines, made entirely without additions of sulfur.
Milan’s father planted 8 hectares of vines in 2001 across two wine growing municipalities: Moravský Žižkov and Velké Bílovice. Milan studied winemaking with Aleš Kristančič of Movia, where he learned a great deal about the delicate art of making skin fermented white wines. No herbicides are used and the vines are worked organically. He believes that gentle methods of growing grapevines and grape processing gives the best result. All wines in the cellar are fermented spontaneously and they are usually vinified in oak and acacia barrels.
