A type of wine made from dark grapes.
Contexto cultural
In Slovakia, it is traditional to clink glasses and say 'Na zdravie!' while looking the other person in the eye. Not doing so is considered bad luck. The 'Vinobranie' festivals in Pezinok and Modra are major cultural events where red wine flows freely and traditional food like 'lokše' is served. Red wine is often served at room temperature, but in the summer, some Slovaks might add a splash of soda water to make a 'vínny strik', though this is more common with white wine. Frankovka modrá is the most iconic Slovak red wine, historically linked to the Habsburg monarchy.
