Tasting notes

A limited harvest premium Cabernet Franc from Villány’s Ördögárok vineyard slope. Following fermentation it is matured for 24 months in barrique barrels. After the bottle has been opened It demonstrates its character almost immediately after decantation. In its slightly sweet and spicy bouquet can be discovered dead leaves, straw, dried apricots, together with traces of flowers; alongside these appear cappuccino and liquorice. In flavour equal proportions of minerality and creaminess ring out.

About the year

A mild winter was followed by an early spring with average precipitation and the odd hailstorm, mostly affecting the area around Siklós. This was followed by a dry, warm period which was especially kind to the blossom and resulting fruit. Summer was long and dry with a high aggregate of heat freshened by much midseason precipitation (100-150 mm). This resulted in some harvests being delayed, but even so the area yielded a generous harvest of grapes of extremely good quality. This year’s main challenges for wine-growers was scorching from the sun and the quick change in acid content. All in all we can speak of an excellent year.
