“Rosé from the unique Slovak variety Dunaj was created in cooperation with the world-famous rose wine specialist Elizabeth Gabay, Master of Wine. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks and matured in acacia barrels using the traditional “”sur-lie”” method. The result is an exceptional low-histamine wine of amazing properties, delicious taste and beautiful colour in modern eco-friendly packaging. Dunaj rosé 2022 has a fuchsia pink colour. The fragrance is dominated by the scent of May cherries, which competes with the floral tones of meadow flowers. The taste is pleasant, fruity, quite full-bodied with a hint of spice and natural tannins from new acacia barrels. It has a long and refined aftertaste.
The wine was produced without the use of oenological preparations and with a minimum content of sulphur dioxide. It was filled without filtration. The wine was made only from the so-called “”free run”” – grape juice that flowed out without pressing the grapes, only with the help of gravity. The wine matured in acacia barrels from the French barrel manufacturer Saury.
Two wine barrels were burnt to Medium intensity, two wine barrels to Light intensity. The blending process took place in two stages, the second week of November 2022 and the first week of April 2023. Filling wine into cans is an innovative process in the wine world. The cans are 100% recyclable, easy to transport, have minimal environmental impact, and are eco-friendly. The whole project was created in cooperation with the winemaker Tomáš Dilong (SVK) and Elizabeth Gabay MW (eng).”
