Tasting note
The wine is a gentle ruby color. The bouquet is delicate, smells like reddish fruit, quite colorful for Cviček. From a classic Sunday lunch with beef soup, roasted potatoes and roast, to a light refreshing salad with cheese and toast. Due to its extremely low level of sugar and alcohol, it is considered one of the most universal wines for a wide variety of cuisines. If we especially recommend it to a dark chocolate cake.
