Discovering the wine region of Slovakia

Slovakia (officially The Slovak Republic) is a landlocked country described as being either at the eastern edge of Western Europe, or the western edge of Eastern Europe. This dichotomy reflects the state's recent history, a story of political unrest common in this region. The lands that are now Slovakia were an integral Part of Hungary for almost 900 years, but became independent when the Austro-Hungarian Empire was dismantled after the First World War. Almost immediately, Slovakia aligned itself with Bohemia and Moravia (the modern-day Czech Republic), Silesia and Carpathian Ruthenia to form Czechoslovakia.

This union lasted until the Velvet Revolution in 1989. Since 1993, the Slovak and Czech republics have remained cordially independent. Since the dissolution of the Eastern Bloc and Slovakia's subsequent separation from its western neighbor the Czech Republic, Slovakia has embraced its European status. It joined both the European Union and Nato in 2004, the Schengen Area in 2007 and the Eurozone in 2009.

It is now among the fastest-developing economies in the OECD, and its once-failing wine industry has shown signs of recovery. Although early attempts to privatize the industry were unsuccessful, New wine laws and the continued growth in wine consumption worldwide have sparked the nation's wine producers into life. The majority of Slovakian wine is still sold domestically or to neighboring Poland and Ukraine, but there are a small number of producers ready, willing and able to develop international export markets. Slovakian wine comes mostly from the vineyards clustered around Bratislava and scattered eastwards along the border with Hungary.

Discover the grape variety: Furmint

Furmint is a very old Hungarian grape variety. It arrived in France in the 1800s. The bunches of Furmint are of medium size. They are compact and cylindrical. The berries are also of medium size. They are either short elliptical or rounded. Their thick skin changes from greenish white to reddish once the fruit is mature. This grape variety is known throughout the world for being part of the composition of the Hungarian Tokaj vintage. Robust, rich in alcohol and acidity, it needs light soil and a warm, dry climate to be fertile. It must also be pruned short and its budding takes place 7 days after the Chasselas. As for its maturity, it is of the second late period. This grape variety fears grey rot and erinosis. When vinified dry, Furmint produces a very fragrant, fine and highly alcoholic white wine.

Discover the grape variety: Salagnin

Discovered in the 1870s by Mr. Robin, who lived in the Drôme at the time in Lapeyrouse-Mornay, this ancient grape variety is believed to have originated in the north of Isère. It can also be found in Switzerland. According to Thierry Lacombe (I.N.R.A./Montpellier), it is the result of a natural intraspecific crossing between Tressot Noir and Mondeuse Blanche. It should be noted in passing that, on the one hand, it has exactly the same parents as the mondeuse noire, that on the other hand, it is the mother of the diolinoir and, finally, is related to the servanin. Robin noir is not widely propagated today because it is not well known, although it is listed in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grape Varieties, list A1.
