A rich and characterful Cabernet Franc from Hungary’s renowned Villány region, where the variety has become particularly celebrated for producing deeply coloured, full-bodied and expressive red wines.
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby red in colour with an intense bouquet of blackcurrant, dark cherry and blackberry, layered with subtle notes of spice, cedar and toasted oak. The palate is generous and structured, combining ripe dark fruit with supple tannins and balanced freshness. Twelve months in oak barrels adds depth and complexity, leading to a smooth, concentrated finish.
Winemaking:
Produced from selected vineyards in Villány, Hungary’s warmest and most southerly wine region, where Cabernet Franc thrives in the hot continental climate. Following fermentation, the wine is matured for 12 months in large second-fill oak barrels, allowing the fruit character and oak influence to integrate harmoniously while preserving freshness and varietal definition. The warm and dry conditions of the 2022 vintage contributed to excellent colour concentration and ripe fruit intensity.
Food Pairing:
An excellent partner for grilled meats, roast beef, venison and rich stews. It also pairs well with smoked dishes, paprika-spiced cuisine and mature hard cheeses.
ABV: 14.5%
