RiChard Pet Nat 2021

Strekov 1075

$54.95 Sale • Save


Imagine you’re a winemaker and you make a wine bursting with tropical energy, round and bright, and tasting like bushels of fruit from far-flung countries. "Fermentation is so cool!" you exclaim, tasting barrel samples in your hypothetical winery. But how would you appropriately convey a propitious sense of wonder in the name of your wine? Now, imagine you are not just a winemaker, but two Slovakian winemakers, and your names are Šroner and Sütó—now perhaps you can guess why this wine is called RiChard. This bottle is a generous, round Slovakian take on our favorite prima ballerina white grape. What is so often interpreted in a doldrum fashion is given a Slovakian make-over and she looks gooood. Keep it cold and drink it in abundance.
