Alternatíva - možnosť voľby ako záruka slobody! Alternatíva je naše jediné jednoodrodové červené víno. Vzniká len v niektorých rokoch. Je to vtedy, keď sa konkrétne sudy Frankovky svojím charakterom vymykajú natoľko, že jej dajú vzniknúť. Víno zreje najmenej 18 mesiacov v dubových sudoch, nečírime ho a ani nefiltrujeme.

ALTERNATIVA is one of our SLOVAK CRU wines.
Alternativa is our homage to the local queen of red varieties - Frankovka modrá, well recognized in regions of Slovakia, Austria and Hungary and known as Kekfrankos or Blaufrankisch.
The grapes for this wine come from the vineyard called Lopata, which for years has been locally known as “Frankovka hill”.
We believe that our ALTERNATIVA is a slovak example of Frankovka that has good fruit, structure and acidity enabling graceful aging, developing substance, and elegance comparable to other premium cool-climate reds out of this most recognisable central european variety.
Wine is fully fermented on skins (4weeks), aged in oak barrels for period of 18 months. The best barrels of Frankovka are selected for Alternativa.
