Considered one of the most promising wineries in the Czech Republic, Thaya produces high-quality white and red wines. The grapes are grown in the company vineyards which extend over approximately 105 hectares located in various villages, near the Podyjí National Park, in the South Moravia region. Here the climatic and soil conditions are particularly favorable for quality viticulture and in fact, the vine has been present since the times of the ancient Romans.
The Apri range of wines is the company's most prestigious. The label features a wild boar, a symbol of strength and wild character. The Chardonnay grapes come from the company's Hnanice and U Chlupa vineyards. Fermentation takes place in 400-liter oak barrels, where the wine is then refined.
Chardonnay Apri is a wine with a warm and intense color with golden tones and straw yellow reflections. On the nose, it reveals a complex and mature aromatic profile with notes of tropical fruit and stone fruit, dried orange peel and candied pineapple, white flowers, and light hints of sweet spices. On the palate, it is juicy and elegant with perfectly balanced acidity and a very pleasant mineral note. The finish is persistent with light nuances of vanilla. Try it with roasted chicken, scallop risotto, or roast veal with citrus sauce.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
