having trouble writing this review, because every time I sit down to write up the notes, I just drink the whole damn thing before I can put pen to paper. Zajc’s Cvicek is just too much fun. It’s a walk through a field of flowers after a spring rain, or a Sunday rewatch of your favorite movie about strawberries. The Cvicek appellation is one of the most charmingly specific wine denominations in the world. It must be a blend of red and white grapes, starting with the native Blauer Koelner, with additions of Blaufrankisch, Kraljevina, and Welschriesling. Cvicek must also be between 8% and 10% alcohol, and that leaves so much room for crunchy acid and snappy fresh fruit. Aromas of white strawberry, raspberry, cranberry, lemon, lemon pepper, and apple blossoms lead into flavors of fresh raspberry and gooseberry, strawberry jello, lemon and pepper and granite. This is only technically a red wine, more the color of a sunset right at its peak. This wine belongs in the refrigerator while you run to the market for the charcuterie board and find the picnic blanket. For the most traditional experience, drink this wine outside from a rocks glass.
