Miro Fondrk Chardonnay Private Reserve 2021

Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant. Serve it chilled.

Founded in 2008, the Miro Fondrk winery was initially born as a small boutique winery. Since 2015, the headquarters have moved, the cellar has been modernized, and the production has expanded, becoming one of the most interesting and awarded producers in Slovakia. The company that owns vineyards in the south of the country produces a selection of excellent quality wines, focusing attention on the careful processing of the grapes.

The Chardonnay grapes are selected and harvested by hand in the Pezinok vineyard located in the Small Carpathian wine region of Slovakia. After a short maceration at a low temperature, fermentation takes place in 500-liter oak barrels. The finished wine is aged for 12 months on the lees.

The Chardonnay Private Reserve from the Miro Fondrk winery is a very expressive and rich wine. The nose reveals notes of exotic fruit, dried flowers, vanilla, and light hints of biscuits. On the palate, it is full bodied and round with well-balanced acidity and a long, very pleasant finish that recalls flavors of yellow fruit. It is a wine that goes beautifully with food: it is perfect with roasted chicken or baked fish and it goes deliciously with lobster and crab.
