Notes & Pairings

This is only the second vintage of making this wine with zero additions. It also threw some new curveballs as well. The vintage was hot and low yielding – 50% down from the previous year. Made during the peak of COVID in Hungary, this is a vineyard where Dorka would run often to clear her head. Whole cluster pressed, fermented in tank and aged in barrel, it has very ripe end of season flavors, but still incredibly fresh and light on its feet. We can’t wait to open a bottle in a few years and see what’s happening inside.
