Fleshy Kékfrankos (blackberry, pepper), fruity Zweigelt, peppery Cabernet Franc. Bright Olaszrizling, taut Ezerjó, floral Kövidinka in whites.
The wine region of Duna
Hungary's largest wine region (= Alföld) between the Danube and Tisza, favourable continental climate on sandy and loess soils. Kékfrankos is the signature king red with cherry, raspberry, spice and a peppery touch, supple tannins and lively acidity. Kadarka and Zweigelt as full-bodied fruity reds. Olaszrizling (Welschriesling), aromatic Cserszegi Fűszeres, Kövidinka and Riesling as fresh whites with citrus, white flowers and a honeyed hint.
The word of the wine: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
