M, enostavno dobra vina – bigBoy, 2018
And what have you been drinking for Easter lunch? I find an excellent Chardonnay the perfect choice to cope with the structure and organoleptic profile of ham baked in bread crust, typically served for this festivity. And the choice was…

As we’re approaching Easter, the time calls for some spoiling of our tastebuds. And Movia‘s latest Chardonnay is the perfect choice to tingle them. Burgundian bottle, as to implicate something, present what one could expect, yes the choice is clever….
