It is called Ryšák, which translates as “ginger”. Historically vineyards consisted of mixed red and white grape vines and the wines were resultantly mixed. As the European codification of appellation developed these wines disappeared in lieu of “pure” varietal wines or permitted blends. This makes it easier for the consumer to recognize brands but erases tons of diversity. We want that diversity! Ryšák can actually be just about anything. It is governed only by requirements relating to its farming. Region, harvest, yields, etc. It could be from any mix of grapes in any proportion. Co-fermented or blended in the cellar, sold young, or old. There are not really many rules, encouraging producers to let taste dictate the final composition without losing the designation. Customarily Ryšák is easy drinking and convivial but the very best of them are the best of Czech wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"black lamb wine","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":47467213160635,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/0227\/9867\/files\/OsickaRysak.jpg?v=1771541075"},{"product_id":"jaroslav-osicka-2023-rysak-copy","title":"JAROSLAV OSIČKA - 2023Tramín červený","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOsička 2021 TRAMÍN ČERVENÝ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDry White Wine\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVINTAGE:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e 2021.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eREGION, SUB-REGION \u0026amp; VILLAGE:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Morava, Velkopavlovická \u0026amp; Velké Bílovice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVINEYARD(S):\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Zadní hora, Přední hora.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eALTITUDE:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 200-250 meters above sea level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSOIL COMPOSITION:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e loess \/ clay \u0026amp; loam soil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePREVAILING CLIMATE \u0026amp; LOCAL CLIMACTIC:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  Continental climate, hot days, cool nights.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFARMING OF VINEYARD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Organic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCOMPOSITION:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Tramín Červený\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHARVEST:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e October 2021.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMACERATION: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eextended maceration of destemmed fruit in used oak vats, mechanical press.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFERMENTATION\/AGING: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 year aging in used oak\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-50360fb6-7fff-fdc0-bf76-16a66c4670ca\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFINING \u0026amp; FILTRATION METHODS:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e none.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDATE OF BOTTLING: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApril, 2022.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBOTTLES PRODUCED:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 600.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"black lamb wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47467230036155,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/0227\/9867\/files\/osickatramin.jpg?v=1771542118"},{"product_id":"jaroslav-osicka-2022-p-a-n","title":"JAROSLAV OSIČKA - 2022 P.A.N.","description":"\u003cp\u003eDRY RED WINE VINTAGE: 2022 WINEMAKER: Jaroslav Osička LOCATION: MORAVA\/Velké Bílovice GRAPE(S): 34% Pinot Noir, 33% André, 33% Blauer Portugieser VINIFICATION: spontaneous fermentation of destemmed grapes, 12 days maceration, aged 10 months sur lie in 1000 l oak barrels, no additives only SO2 at bottling, no fining or filtration BOTTLED: Aug. 2023 ALC\/VOL: 13\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"black lamb wine","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":47467234230459,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/0227\/9867\/files\/osickapan_bdabf926-7cb5-4bc9-baa9-88b7479acc84.jpg?v=1771544122"}],"url":"https:\/\/blacklambwine.com\/collections\/jaroslav-osicka.oembed","provider":"Black Lamb Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
