The "Three-Way" Harmony – A Textured Dialogue of Chardonnay and Pinot

In March 2026, the Cuvée Tři 2019/2020 stands as the sophisticated "elder sibling" to the CMYK series. The name Tři (meaning "Three") refers to the three different vessels used during its maturation: a portion is aged in stainless steel tanks, a portion in large oak barrels, and the final part in a 600-litre egg-shaped oak vessel. This multi-vessel approach creates a wine with incredible aromatic intensity and a complex, layered structure.

Like many of Dominika Černohorská's top-tier wines, this is a multi-vintage blend, combining the structural depth of 2019 with the vibrant, high-toned energy of 2020.


🍷 Tasting Notes (2026 Perspective)

Currently at six years of age, the 2019/2020 blend has reached a beautiful state of "creamy precision," where the oak-driven texture perfectly supports the cool-climate fruit.

  • The Nose: Complex and "Worked." It leads with a sophisticated mix of yellow peach, pineapple, and ripe pear. Because of the extended time on lees (bâtonnage), you'll find elegant secondary notes of biscuit, fresh bread, and toasted almond, with a hint of white flowers.

  • The Palate: Silky and Focused. The entry is broad and "mouth-filling," featuring a creamy texture derived from the egg maturation. Flavors of lemon curd and apricot are balanced by a sharp, lively acidity and a distinct flinty, mineral "snap" characteristic of the Pavlov limestone.

  • The Finish: Long and Savory. It concludes with a persistent trail of citrus pith and wet stones, leaving a clean, saline impression that invites another sip.

Pro Tip

Cuvée Tři is a wine that rewards patience and the right glass. Do not serve it in a narrow flute; use a wider Burgundy-style glass to allow the complex "yeasty" and floral aromas to expand. Serve at 11°C–13°C to prevent the cold from masking the subtle oak influence. It is a world-class partner for richer fish (Salmon or Trout), Poultry in cream sauce, or a Seafood Green Curry.
