Thrilled to say that Slobodné Vinárstvo is at Apteka May 6. 

Slobodne Vinarstvo is a vineyard making beautiful wines in Hlohovec, Slovakia- about an hour NE of Bratislava lead by sisters Agnes and Katka, and their partners Andrea and Miso.

They've been a staple producer for us for almost as long as we've been open; a biodynamic wine project focused on great farming and minimal input intervention in the cellar, grown out of a farmstead with a tremendous story that started in 1912, when their family survived Nazis and communism, and is now is their home. 

Creative and experimental, Slobodne makes all types of music out: Gruner Veltliner, Devin, Traminer, Riesling, Pinot G, Sauv B, Frankovka, Cab Sauv, Alibernet,..

Incomparably warm and generous hosts, back in 2021 they put us up for a couple nights- invited us to pick grapes, let us cosplay as vitners as we paddled traminer for their orange wines, tasted through all the amazing things they had working in the cellar at every stage- drank and smoked and ate artichokes. Don't know where you'd even start looking for more cool + talented + real hard working people. 

These are wines we, and many of you, have grown to know very well - and we're over the moon we get to host Agnes and Katarina at Apteka for an evening pouring Slobodné wines paired with Slovak flavors of Spring:)
