A 500-year history of captivating European royalty
Pivnice Radšina, Slovakia’s oldest winery, traces its origins back to 1532, founded under the guidance of Christian monks. Located in the Nitra region, this historic winery has continued to produce exceptional wines, gracing the table of Empress Maria Theresa and being served at the weddings of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince William.

The wine is masterfully assembled from batches fermented in both stainless steel tanks and oak barrels. It is then carefully aged in stainless steel for seven months to perfectly harmonize its rich, full-bodied texture with vibrant, fresh fruit flavors. Even today, it continues to prove its consistently world-class quality as a winery favored by the British and Dutch royal families.

Recommended perfect matches for this wine:

• ■ Sushi and green vegetables with sesame dressing: Served at a cooler temperature (12°C), the wine’s elegance complements delicate raw seafood while harmonizing perfectly with the savory, toasted notes of sesame.
• ■ Herb-roasted scallops: The wine’s full-bodied texture beautifully enhances rich, buttery seafood and aromatic green herbs.
• ■ Chicken sauté or salt-grilled yakitori: As the wine warms slightly in the glass (approaching 16°C), its full body and subtle oak nuances pair perfectly with the savory, roasted flavors of chicken.

Recommended serving temperature: 12°C–16°C (enjoy it within this range to bring out its full richness)
