Tento rozhovor na GourmetSpirit vyšel přesně před měsícem a já ho pořádně přečetl až dnes. Tak dlouhý byl :) Vlastně celý rozhovor a následné čtení byla pro mě tak trochu retrospektiva toho, co se za poslední roky událo. Koho zajímají naše novinky, tak i to je nakousnuto. Zkrátka, jestli máte rádi Sauvignon, doporučuji připravit k večeři chřest, otevřít nějakou super láhev a věřím, že s následujícími větami ten den bude zase o kousek příjemnější. Dobrou chuť!

Sekt? This category of wines tasted sommelier Mikuláš (Podkorkem.cz). You can read opinion of winemakers and check tested wines.

A novelty for the end of the year 2020, something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. For me personally a big challenge and after 26 months from the processing of the grapes, we finally have our results. A sekt from the variety of Sauvignon Blanc produced in the traditional way of fermenting the wine in the bottles. An elegant and fine matter.

And I’d like to thank everyone who trusted in a good outcome for this wine and some even several months in advance. The sekt is on its way to you.

Wow! I’ve been waiting for the new edition of the book “Best wines of CZ 2020-2021” with great anticipation and we have just received our own copy from Wine & Degustation. To uphold 3 stars among the best wineries in the Czech Republic, three years in a row, is a huge success. To uphold two wines in the TOP 3 Sauvignon, to be honest, is something I didn’t even hope for but it made me very happy. And to add to all of that, three of our wines are in the TOP 3 Chardonnay. This was great news to me, thank you very much!

I am also very happy for all the other wineries. It is great to watch how our quality of wine is rising up in the world. Congratulations to all of my colleagues! If you’re looking for some great wine references, here you have them all in one place.

ROBERT PARKER is a living legend and considered to be one of the most well-known and influential wine critics in the world. His opinions have been respected and looked up to in the wine and sommelier world for over three decades now. In many cases the prices of the most popular wines in the world are based off of his evaluations. As a winery you can not force an evaluation to happen, or pay for one. All you can do is hope that your wines will be chosen. It is something like the Michelin Guide, but in the world of wine. If Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate team publishes your wine’s evaluation and you get in to the database of evaluated wines, it’s a huge accomplishment. Many selected wines are never published.

So far, not one Czech wine has ever been evaluated by the Robert Parker Wine Advocate. I’m incredibly happy that our three sauvignons have had the honor to be the first wines in this database. To be more specific Sauvignon Blanc Na výsluní 2018 (89 points), BIG Sauvignon Blanc 2018 (88 points) and Sauvignon Blanc Sahara 2018 (88 points). These evaluations are very strict and I believe that more wines from CZ will follow soon and they will gain more and more respect in the world. Thank you!

Coincidentally a moth after the April evaluation of Sauvignons in the Wine & Degustatiton magazine, a test of Chardonnays took place, in which we also participated. We are happy to have received a bronze medal and would also like to congratulate our colleagues in first and second place! And I wish the rest of you a pleasant reading.

An evaluation of our 2016, 2017 and 2018 BIG Chardonnay was written for Vineval by Petr Lipový. Each a little different and each very specific. Read here .

Thank you for a pleasant talk about our beginnings, journey and direction the winery is taking.

Have you already seen the April Grand test in the Wine & Degustation magazine, with its focus on Sauvignon? Some of you have already noticed and I would like to thank you for the congratulations! It made us very happy :)

With DrinkingAgainstSinking initiative, winemakers want to support their local community and small businesses. Every Drinking-Against-Sinking-Wine will cost at least 20€ and is available at every winery that participates in this project. Part of this money will stay with the wine maker to cover their costs. The rest will be given to local businesses, like restaurants and retailers, to support them.

We are on board with our special edition Sauvignon Blanc MAGNUM. It's not normally on sale. 

Thank you for your help and support!
