Discover the grape variety: Malvoisie de Toscane
It was cultivated in ancient times and is believed to be of Greek origin. In Italy, associated with Trebbiano Toscano, it was used to produce the famous Chianti: these two white varieties are no longer part of the vineyard. In France, Tuscan Malvasia is practically unknown. It should be noted that many grape varieties have "malvasia" as a synonym, so confusion between them is always possible.

The wine region of Eger
Eger, in northeastern Hungary, is a wine region best known for its Egri Bikavér wine, popularly known as "Bull's Blood". Although Sweet, white Tokaji remains unrivaled as Hungary's most famous wine overall, Bikavér (Bull's Blood) is surely the country's most famous red. The style – a Complex blend of several dark-skinned grapes – was first made in the late 19th Century, in Szekszard (200 kilometers/130 miles southwest of Eger). It rose to international fame in the 1970s, when the state-owned Egervin winery monopolized production of the style, and successfully promoted it on export markets.
The word of the wine: Guyot (pruning)
This is the most widespread pruning technique. It includes one or two long branches and allows the mechanization of a large number of vineyard operations.
