Discover the grape variety: Carignan Blanc

Structured, full-bodied dry whites with a pale to golden colour, ample palate and preserved acidity, showing signature aromas of ripe yellow fruits (pear, peach, apricot), almond, white flowers and Mediterranean saline notes. Good ageing potential; renewed interest for character-driven southern whites. Grown in small quantities in Languedoc-Roussillon and Catalonia (cariñena blanca). White-berried mutation of carignan noir, a historic Mediterranean variety.

The wine region of Villány

Hungary's hottest region, kingdom of powerful reds in the south. Signature Cabernet Franc ("Villányi Franc"): deep and refined with notes of ripe blackcurrant, black pepper, violet, graphite and tobacco, firm tannins and great ageing potential. Also fleshy, spicy Kékfrankos (Blaufränkisch), supple, fruity Portugieser, round Merlot and dense Cabernet Sauvignon. Successful Bordeaux blends.


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: Bordeaux barrel

Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
