It is made entirely from Welschriesling, one of Slovakia’s most widely cultivated white grape varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRipe peach, apple and pear are complemented by dried herbs and a distinctly stony character. The palate is medium-bodied, combining white fruit and citrus with lively acidity and a gentle roundness derived from lees ageing. Citrus and mineral notes linger through the persistent finish. As the wine is bottled without fining or filtration, a slight natural haze or fine sediment may be present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Vineyard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from a certified-organic vineyard in the village of Rybník, within the historic Tekov area at the foot of Mount Sitno in central Slovakia. The Štiavnica Mountains were formed by the activity of an immense ancient stratovolcano, and Sitno, at 1,009 metres, is their highest peak. The surrounding landscape contains diverse volcanic formations, including tuff and andesite. Viticulture has a long history here, with written records of vineyards in Rybník dating back to the eleventh century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Winemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter gentle pressing, the juice was transferred directly into concrete eggs, where spontaneous fermentation took place with indigenous yeasts. Following fermentation, the wine remained in the same vessels on its gross lees until April of the following year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine was then racked off the gross lees. Once the remaining fine sediment had settled naturally, it was bottled without fining or filtration. No selected yeasts, enzymes or other winemaking additives were used, while the addition of SO₂ was limited to a maximum of 20mg\/L.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concrete permits gentle oxygen exchange, while the vessel’s egg shape creates natural convection within the wine. This helps preserve the purity of the fruit while contributing texture, roundness and depth without adding the flavours associated with oak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"マルヴラ ティンド","offers":[{"title":"1×750 ml","offer_id":45373074899013,"sku":"MTEGGSPERIMENT","price":4235.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"6×750 ml","offer_id":45373074931781,"sku":null,"price":21852.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/7356\/8069\/files\/Marvla-Tindo.Eggsperiment.jpg?v=1784349074","url":"https:\/\/vinsdolive.com\/en\/products\/wine-slovakia-marvla-tindo-eggsperiment","provider":"Vd'Oヴァンドリーヴ株式会社 \/ ビオtoYou合同会社","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
