Discover the grape variety: Roi des noirs
Light, simple fruity reds with a pale ruby robe, smooth tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing understated red fruit aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it belongs to the ancient varieties whose commercial spread has nearly vanished, studied for their genetic interest. Rare black variety, little documented, grown in confidential quantities.

The wine region of Balaton
Hungarian region around the largest lake in Central Europe, 6 zones including volcanic Badacsony. Signature Olaszrizling (Welschriesling), Hungary's most planted grape: lively, mineral whites with signature notes of almond, citrus, green apple, white flowers and a herbaceous touch, a crisp finish - a typical thirst-quenching wine. Also round Szürkebarát (Pinot Gris), ample Chardonnay, rare native Kéknyelű. Basalt in the north, lakeside climate.
The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
