A blend of fleshy, spicy reds with signature notes of black cherry, ripe plum, paprika, sweet spices and tobacco, round tannins. Mandatory base of Kékfrankos (Blaufränkisch), blended with fruity Kadarka, peppery Cabernet Franc and supple Merlot. Also Egri Csillag in white ("Star of Eger"), fresh and aromatic.
The word of the wine: Destemming
Action consisting in separating the grapes from the stalk before vinification. The stalk, the woody part of the bunch, may give the wine an unpleasant vegetal character.
