Regular price $38.00

LOCATION: ČAJKOV, NITRA, SLOVAKIA / WINEMAKER: MAREK UHNÁK / GRAPE(S): FRANKOVKA, ALIBERNET, DEVÍN / FROM MAREK: "Red & white grapes in full tectonic motion, based on the 2020 vintage with a drop of 2021. Earthy, fiery Alibernet ridge - juicy Frankovka undercurrent - dash of volcanic ash, served by the eloquent white Devín. Putting these grapes together was a happy accident – one vintage, I had such little yield from one vineyard that I had to process all its grapes together, no matter the colour. Although unplanned, I liked the result so much that I replicated this blend later on purpose. The new Tecton is a blend of three neighbouring sites with similar soil and spirit – proportions vary according to vintage, but the aim is always a tasty red wine that's grounded, but still a bit provocative and easy to finish a bottle of." Low alcohol, spicy a bit wild.
