Rosé 2023

Bluefrankish is the most produced grape variety in Hungary, which is related to the fact, that it is a very thankful plant. It crops well, has a good quality, a solid fragrance: pleasurable, full-bodied red wines and excellent rosés can be made from it besides Bull’s Blood from Eger – by that, a lot can know, as this grape is the base of the blend. We also put it together with Pinot Noir to create our rosé. Pinot Noir is one of the oldest known varieties. It has French origins, a characteristic vine of Burgundy, member of the Pinot family. A noble and capricious variety, showing its best colours on its own. It gives a fierce, savoury wine, but when it is processed as white wine it is also suitable to produce sparkling wines. The red wine from it is attractive for the ones who like easier drinks, because of its low tannin content and lighter colour. Next to its birth region, it gives famous wines is Champagne, Alsace, California, Melbourne region in Australia and lately in Oregon state close to Washington, where a bit colder slopes give it home. Today in Hungary there are 1162 acres of Pinot Noir summing up to 1,8% of all the country’s vineyards. In Badacsony which is famous for its white wines - not without historical reasons- there are 76 acres, what is by far the biggest variety of blue grapes in the area.
