Details and technical informations about Winery Hetényi Pincészet's Kékfrankos.
Discover the grape variety: Kékfrankos
Structured, elegant reds with a deep ruby robe, firm tannins and a dense palate, with signature aromas of red and black fruits (cherry, blackberry), spices, black pepper and balsamic notes. Fine ageing potential, a characteristically spicy profile. Star of the wines of Sopron and Eger in Hungary (a component of Bikavér "Bull's Blood"). Hungarian name for the Austrian Blaufränkisch, called Lemberger in Germany and Borgonja in Croatia, an autochthonous black variety of central Europe.

The wine region of Szekszárd
Southern Hungarian region, land of velvety, spicy reds. Signature Szekszardi Bikaver (local "Bull's Blood"): a blend of dominant Kekfrankos (Blaufrankisch) and native Kadarka, with signature notes of ripe cherry, plum, paprika, hibiscus, tobacco and sweet spice, velvety tannins and southern roundness — softer and sunnier than Eger's. Also peppery Cabernet Franc and dense Cabernet Sauvignon. Mild Pannonian climate, loess soils over limestone.
The wine region of Dél-Pannónia
Southern Hungary (Pécs, Szekszárd, Villány, Tolna), ~7,800 ha on loess and limestone, continental climate with Mediterranean influences — bastion of great Hungarian reds. Kékfrankos and Kadarka signatures as native red kings: spiced and structured with black cherry, blackberry, plum, paprika, pepper and smoky hint, firm tannins. Ripe Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon in Bordeaux blends at Villány. Specialities Szekszárdi Bikavér and unique Cirfandli white at Pécs (spiced, honeyed).
The word of the wine: Mineral
Taste reminiscent of gunflint, chalk and many nuances of the mineral world, and reinforcing, especially in white wines, the notion of freshness and the sappy character.
