Nagyapám Szekszárd Kadarka
Szekszárd, Dunántú, Hungary
Yet another relatively unknown grape, Kadarka traces it's origins to the Szekszárd region of Hungry. For me, it's somewhat reminiscent of Blaufränkisch, which, interestingly also originates from Szekszárd. Ruby-hued and aromatic, ebullient notes of red fruit, roses and subtle spice tumble forth. It's equally generous on the palate with low tannins, balanced by a nice pop of acidity that gives lift to pie cherries, raspberries and a carefree pinch of tobacco. 13.0% ABV | Sample

Great wine for the summer months, loads of fresh fruit and great acidity.

Smoky, good acid, similar to a Cab Franc.

Beautiful wine: light and fruity at first, then smoky then soft tannins. Too fruity and thin for me, but I appreciated the funky nose and intriguing structure. The somm suggested it was close to a Pinot Noir; I have to agree.
