The wine region of Eger
Emblematic Hungarian region in the north, home of the legendary Egri Bikavér ("Bull's Blood"). 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: Carbonic maceration
Fermentation of whole grapes in a carbon dioxide-saturated atmosphere. This type of fermentation produces very aromatic and flattering wines.
