Magula - Carboniq - 2022
Embracing 100% Carbonic Maceration, whole grape bunches are fermented in a CO2-rich environment before crushing. Two weeks later, the grapes are pressed. This wine is crafted unfined, unfiltered, and with minimal sulphur.
For two generations, the Magula family has farmed biodynamically in the Rose and the Wolf valleys of Sucha. These valleys boast deep loess soils rich in minerals, where scarce rainfall forces the vines to delve deep, absorbing the earth's essence. Abundant sunshine ensures the vines achieve perfect ripeness.
Region: Little Carpathians , Slovakia
