Milan Nestarec's Forks and Knives Red is what happens when a winemaker decides to flip the script on fancy wine culture. Blending Blaufrankisch, St Laurent, and Pinot Noir from the rich clay soils of Moravský Žižkov, this wine is Nestarec's love letter to everyday drinking. Imagine a wine that's bursting with fresh strawberries, a splash of pomegranate, and this killer hint of earthy mint - all wrapped up with a cheeky mineral finish that'll make your taste buds do a happy dance. It's slightly fizzy, meant to be served just a touch chilled, and embodies Nestarec's mission to create a wine that's less about pretension and more about pure enjoyment. Born in a vintage that was all sunshine and just enough rainfall to keep things interesting, this wine is essentially liquid-proof that great wine doesn't have to be complicated. It's well-priced, friendly, and exactly the kind of wine you want at your dinner table—no sommelier certification required. This isn't just a red wine; it's Nestarec's middle finger to wine snobbery, served up with a wink and a whole lot of character.
