The wine region of Badacsony
Emblematic zone of Hungarian Balaton, north shore on extinct volcanoes with unique basalt soils. Signature structured mineral whites: basalt releases potassium and magnesium, conferring striking minerality and salinity. Rare reborn native Kéknyelű with signature notes of lemon, white apple, fresh herbs and a smoky mineral touch. Olaszrizling (most planted) fresh, Szürkebarát (Pinot Gris) ample, taut Furmint.
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: Thick
Said of a heavy, pasty wine lacking in finesse.
