Bohemian Dog Schiller 2021

100% Blaufränkisch

Southern Slovak viticultural region, Strekov. The grapes were harvested from the Góra vineyard, from a 6-year-old vineyard, with a sugar content of 21.50 NM°. Fermentation occurred spontaneously after a 2-day maceration on the skins. The wine is produced using traditional methods without the use of selected yeasts, enzymes, or other additives. Unclarified and unfiltered wine, with a total sulfur content of 36 mg/l.

CHARACTERISTICS

Even its name, Schiller, indicates that this is not a typical rosé with a delicate color and impressive aroma and lively taste. The wine has a clear, brick-red color, resembling juice from a cherry compote. The aroma is full of ripe red fruit, dominated by strawberries, raspberries, blackcurrants, and plums, with hints of minerals and spices. Medium-bodied, relatively rich on the palate, yet wonderfully fresh and juicy. A long-lasting finish.

Wine maker

Tomáš & Gabriel Kasnyik

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.
