The name of this wine (“Hungarian Blue” in French) is a poetic way of describing the signature dark-skinned grape of Central-Eastern Europe.
Grape: Kekfrankos (Blaufrankisch)
Vineyard: Pécsely, Sentio Birtok. Volcanic soil. Organic grapes bought from a local grower.
Making of: Hand-harvested. Grapes were left as whole bunches: 50% of them were foot-stomped while the other half were left intact. After 10 days of skin contact in an open-top vat, the grapes were pressed in basket press and then went into a 600-liter big oak barrel. After 11 months of barrel aging, the wine was bottled by gravity, without any addition. No filter, no fining.
