Our wine must be stable, without faults, drinkable, enjoyable and above all: we must like it, otherwise it will not leave our cellar.

Naboso, a project by the couple Nadja and Andrej in the Slovak town of Svätý Jur, is a 5 ha vineyard on the western foothills of the Carpathians, near the Austrian border, their vineyards feature Welschriesling, Traminer, Blaufränkisch, Grüner Veltliner, and a touch of Müller Thurgau, thriving on sandy granite soils.

Naboso follows low-intervention practices in both the vineyard and cellar. With Andrej’s 10 years of winemaking experience and Nadja’s German roots, combined with patience and gentle aging, they produce stable, flawless, and delicious wines.

Cellar work is precise, utilizing gravity for must transfer to barrels. The wines, aged for about 3 years, include whites with extended maceration and reds matured in used oak and acacia barrels, bottled unfiltered. A minimal amount of sulfur is added judiciously before bottling.

Described as supple, energetic, and ever-evolving, Naboso’s natural wines reflect the character of the region. The couple takes pride in creating great wine, with each bottle leaving their cellar meant to excite and delight.
