Notes & Pairings
The wine loosely translates to a “fool’s day,” because this was originally a wine Péter made for himself. Something to end a long day with that’s both refreshing and alive, but also has enough stuffing to take the edge off. As he puts it, this is “Kadarka style” in that the shorter maceration and tank fermentation gives it less color and extraction. He’s not calling it a “Siller,” but that’s how it drinks. This vintage is mostly Kékfrankos with just a splash of Pinot Noir. He usually only makes a few hundred bottles of this, so inventory is limited.
