From the basalt slopes of Badacsony, this Kéknyelű reflects the challenges and rewards of a warm yet rainy vintage. The year began with a notably cool spring followed by ideal rainfall and a warm summer, resulting in loose clusters and concentrated fruit.
The wine was made with gentle whole-cluster pressing, must settling and fermentation at 18°C in oxygen-permeable vessels, followed by careful racking and maturation. Bottled in July 2024, it showcases the precision and care of the winemaking process, with an ageing potential of at least 5-10 years.
