As we are getting towards fall my natural appettite moved from whites and roses towards reds. (This does not mean that there will be only reds tasted) so i looked at my cellar if there is something, which would sooth my palate :) and I found this bottle. I rememeber getting it with my friend about 5 years ago in wine festival in Troja chateau in Prague. We could not find suitable local red from the barrel, so we decided to buy this one. Later one I ordered a case and store it in my cellar to see how it ages.
