Jakub Kalinowski

A blend around Chardonnay & Viognier with a bunch of local varieties, aged 10m in 500l French oak barrels.
Waxy & spicy with some shy white peach and dried herbs.
Quite viscous on the palate, beautifully balanced with nice energy, great depth and juicy & spicy acidity. Amazing length, too.
Quite a serious wine with substance. Much more a food wine than just for terrace sipping.
