Little-known Kadarka grape is mainly grown in the central European Balkan-Pannonian region, in Hungary, Serbia and Romania. And in Bulgaria where they call the grape Gamza.
Its origin is somewhat hazy, but it seems that its life began in the south part of the Balkan…
The traditional, old way would be when Pinot Grigio grapes are pressed and the skins are allowed to spend some time with the juice, that is when a miracle happens.
As we are slowly going towards Christmas it is time to move on with Tastings!
Private wine tastings for groups from 4 to 12 persons.
Coming Saturday 12. November we open for tasting some Alsatian, Italian and of course Serbian Pinots.
On the tasting table new wines and new vintages from Oszkar Maurer and Bikicki.
Together with the restock of all time favourites Babba, Traminac and Uncensored,
we are very excited to present winemaker
Erno Sagmeister and some of his gems from the south slopes of mountain Fruška Gora, in the north of Serbia.
Together with Sayaka and Soichiro from Sakenomism we take a deep dive into Sake, the traditional Japanese rice brew and make a clear cut through many prejudices and misconceptions.
