2020 Dluhe Grefty Rufus, Moravia, Czech Republic
$29.99
Varieties: Fieldblend including Riesling, Blaufrankisch, Pinot Blanc
Vinification method: The grapes are destemmed and foot stomped together, and the juice ferments in 225-liter used oak barrels for two weeks. Zero sulfur added, unfined and unfiltered.
Personality: “ryšák” aka ginger is the Czech term for a coferment of red and white grapes, resulting here in an unclassifiable idiosyncratic wine full of fresh berries and spicy notes.
