I bought this wine when visiting the winery couple of years ago. As far as I remember this wine was unfiltered and almost no sulfur was used in production of the wine. Stored carefully in damp cellar at 13°C it nicely survived to date. This wine for me reminds me a lot this wine from Korab made from very old vineyard in traditional (authentic) way tasted in November 2012. I am not fan of Frankovka, but I quite like this wine despite very high acidity and huge fruit. I guess majority of the people would not agree with me:-), that what is good about the wine;-).
