FROM MAREK UHNÁK…
“We were walking toward the fountain, the epicenter of activity, when an older couple stopped and openly observed us. Robert enjoyed being noticed, and he affectionately squeezed my hand. "Oh, take their picture," said the woman to her bemused husband, "I think they're artists." "Oh, go on," he shrugged. "They're just kids.” - Patti Smith,
Skin maceration tames the fragrant Ottonel beast and reveals its surprisingly delicate deeper structure and cheeky playfulness, especially when complemented by Yellow Muscat's brisk acidity. Aromatic (exotic fruit, acacia and lemongrass), yet wonderfully light and easy to drink. Asian dishes, not too spicy. A colorful cheese platter. Lemon-basil chicken. White fish with light citrusy sauces. Mint, zucchini, lemon and chili pasta. Notes and Label art: Katarína Rybnická, Katkat, Košice
