ALMA X ALTENBURGER DINNER

WEDNESDAY, MAY 22, 19:00

WHAT: A multi-course shared dinner filled with great wine from Markus Altenburger.

WHY: Honza Čulík and Vojta Václavík met Markus at an after-party in the great
Neusiedler pub after Karakterre three years ago.
The conversation was as follows:
Vojta: We are soon opening the restaurant Alma in Prague and also the distribution of
Alma Wines.
Markus answered: I have a winery and my daughter's name is Alma.
Honza Čulík: Then we should work together! 

And that's how it came about. Markus' excellent Frankovka (= Blaufränkisch), mineral Chardonnay and light orange Ois Erleben quickly caught on in Prague. We don't know if it is rather a friendship or a work relationship, but it doesn't matter now, both are working great.

Parking: Rear side of the Winery: A. Stroblweg 70, 7093 Jois. 
WHEN: Wednesday, May 22nd, 19:00 (Please show up around 18:30 for Apero and smooth start).
HOW: Long tables, pleasant music by , creative dishes prepared directly in the
