  I purchased this bottle in Bratislava at the “Slovakian Wine Museum” in March 2016. They had a deal where you could taste as many of the 80+ wines they had as you wanted for 20 Euros, and this was apparently good enough to grab a bottle and schlep home where it has sat in the cellar since. The back label tells me is most Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc with a small amount of Pinot gris. It’s also apparently from Pezinok, Pezinsky, Malokarptská. It was aged for 6 months in 400L barriques, and the label suggests in could age for 1-3 years.
  
  Poured and given 10 minutes to warm a little. The color is starting to golden a little, but the nose is full of tropical fruit notes and a bit of signs of the oak still. The first sip is really pleasant, with the tropical nots continuing, some floral hints on the finish, but dominated by the fruit carrying through for a long time. It Carrie’s only moderate weight, but feels very nice in the mouth. CT tells me this cost the equivalent of about $17, and it’s an absolute steal for that.
