Richard Stávek Medovy Muskatek 2022 Review
Winemaker Richard Stávek had mead in mind when making this wine from the Czech Republic. Mead is fermented honey and water and he thought to replace that with Muscat. Stávek also raises goats and produces honey, so in a nod to the honey “wine” he adds a tiny amount of honey to ferment with the grapes. And the grapes themselves come from a vineyard made up of a field blend of various members of the Muscat family. Not only is it one of the coolest wines we’ve come across, it is also exceptional. The nose offers aromas of citrus, honeysuckle, and white pepper and the harmonious palate adds an extra layer of spicy, savory flavor.
