Masiar Wines

Mäsiar Wines is a low-intervention winery based in Levice, Slovakia. Focused on respecting the terroir and working with minimal manipulation, the winery has established a philosophy of "from nature to nature" in its vineyard and cellar practices.

Philosophy & Winemaking

• Low-Intervention: The core of Mäsiar Wines is a commitment to minimal intervention throughout the winemaking process.

• Vineyard Practice: The grapes are sourced from their own newly planted, uncertified organic vineyards located on windy, south-orientated slopes around Levice, totaling approximately 1.5 hectares. A defining characteristic of the terroir is the presence of travertine in the subsoil.

• Cellar Techniques: The wines are hand-harvested, destemmed, and macerated. Aging takes place in a stone cellar using glass bottles, stainless steel tanks, or wooden barrels. They are unfiltered and bottled with either no or very low levels of sulfites.

Wines

Mäsiar Wines produces a range of unique and expressive wines, often highlighting individual characteristics and minimal intervention. Examples from their collection include:

• Red Wines: Varieties like Alibernet, Frankovka, and Pinot Noir.

• Other Wines: Wines named oXI, Red Mineral, Tropical, Veltin, and Elder, which are likely distinct cuvées or natural wine styles.

Mäsiar Wines embodies a modern approach to winemaking that values the purity of the fruit and the distinct expression of its unique Slovakian terroir.
