BOTT FRIGYES
Garam-mente, Slovakia
10 ha

His 10 ha is located near the village of Muzsla, Southern Slovakia in the middle of the Danube and Garam river’s triangle on favourable southern slopes. He grows traditional varieties, while most people choose international grapes or trendy. Most of his wines are white, with a smaller amount of reds. They're spontaneously fermented, barrel aged, whole berry fermentation is used more and more frequently, and before bottling, usually the wines are not filtered and only a minuscule amount of sulphur is added. His style relies on showing his terroir through his wines, and he drew a lot of inspiration from Austrian and German vintners. Since 2014 they have been engaged in biodynamic vine cultivation.
