  1. Wow. 89 points! That must have been an amazing bottle given the extraordinary score. From your wine trip in Moravia last year?

  2. It was shockingly good. Although under screw top it was aged nicely. very complex, bouquet resemling ice wine. In taste nice residual suger complemented with high acidity (8.4g/l). I trully loved drinking it. The only problem is I had just one botlle:(
