Winemaker’s note: “Some wines are born in chateaux, others in a bouncy castle. Sparkling whole-bunch Pinot Gris! (With a bit of Pinot Noir for extra fun.) As the name suggests, this wine winks back at my early years, when I went for style over seriousness. This wine is definitely a light-hearted, easy-drinking stuff with 10% ABV only. No need to think about soil or fancy barrels, just good ol’ fizzy fun here. The perfect spring release material.”
Grapes: Pinot Gris, tiny bit of Pinot Noir
Vineyard: Slovenské vineyard in Moravský Žižkov village, Velkopavlovická, in the Moravia region. Clay soil, Organic (certified by ABCERT), planted in 2001.
Vinification: Grapes were hand-harvested and sorted by hand in September 2023. Whole bunch, gently pressed for free run juice only. Spontaneous fermentation on the skins and stems until 2/3 done, then finished in pressure tank to keep the CO2 in for 7 days. Unfined, unfiltered, no added SO2. Bottled in March 2024
