Riesling
Brisk and mineral, but without austerity. There’s a soft shimmer of citrus and stone, held in check by the kind of structure that only comes from careful, patient farming. Mirka lets it unfold at its own pace and the result is graceful and direct.
MIRA
Mirka Nestarcová, partner in life to Milan Nestarec, has carved out her own corner of Moravia, finding her own rhythm with a two-hectare project that was born from a desire to make the kind of wild, instinctive wines she felt missing from the more composed side of Milan’s production.
She works with Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Franc, all grown with almost no interference. The vines are left to find their own shape, reaching for the sun without trimming or cutting — Mirka jokes that human hands hardly touch them at all. That freedom leads to smaller berries and a different balance of juice and skin, giving the wines a more defined, tactile structure — “a better one,” as she puts it.
In the cellar, she follows the same impulse to trust rather than control. Everything ferments spontaneously, nothing is fixed or repeated by design. These are true zero-zero wines, guided by instinct and energy rather than habit or plan.
The labels feature modern dance legends — a nod to Mirka’s background as a dancer and teacher before she turned to wine. It fits perfectly: her wines move with the same sense of rhythm and presence, alive to the moment, impossible to choreograph.
