About the Winemaker
Vinárstvo Magula is a family winery in Suchá nad Parnou, Slovakia, with roots dating back to 1931 and three generations of winemaking tradition.
Vlado Magula farms purely ecologically and in harmony with nature, utilizing the warmer climate, lower precipitation, and limestone soils of the region. His wines are found in top restaurants on three continents.
Farming & Cellar: Certified organic and biodynamic farming. The estate functions as a living farm organism with horses, orchards, bees, and livestock creating a balanced ecosystem. All wines are made from 100% estate-grown grapes with time to mature into balance and depth.
US Natural Wine ships once a week, every Wednesday. All orders should be placed by Tuesday at noon in order to be picked up from our distributors and out on Wednesday's delivery truck.
Shipping cost is 35 bucks a box (up to 12 bottles) so we highly encourage picking up more than 1 bottle for the best value! Remember, all orders over $200 get FREE SHIPPING!
At $35, shipping cost is on par with most wine ecommerce. Ultimately, we eat the cost of shipping more often than not because wine can be damn heavy. We can't thank you enough for your understanding!
