Winemaking
We harvested the grapes on the very steep, narrow terraces of the Lencsés vineyard. The bunches had a mix of botrytised and full bunches and then the must was fermented in new Hungarian Gönci barrels. And we are aging the wine in the same barrels.
Wine tasting
“Both the colour and nose show this to be a youthful wine. Warm lavender, chamomile and peach aromas in the aromatics. The barrel is just perceptible in the nose, more defined on the palate. Refined structure, not overly powerful sweetness in it. The rich world of flavours comprises chestnut, peach and vanilla-clove notes. A light wine, exciting and with a substantial finish.” (Gabriella Mészáros)
