Gently grippy but richly aromatic orange wine from this pioneering natural winemaking family. This is 100% Pinot Gris which sings with stone fruits and the sort of freshness only imparted by the sort of ideal winemaking climate found i n this corner of Slovakia.
Slovakian winemaking, despite its many similarities to the perhaps more familiar winemaking culture of Austria’s east, remains resolutely under-the-radar but the family behind Trnava’s Slobodné Vinárstvo are working hard to change all that. Working a 17-hectare patchwork of grapes both familiar and less so (Devin anyone?) they are crafting the kind of wines that have put eastern Europe at the very centre of the natural wine conversation. These are delicious, wildly original wines worth a place in any cellar.
