This wine takes me back to a rainy night spent on Castle hill in Budapest. After driving 500 km through a wintery mix I checked in to my hotel in Buda overlooking the Danube, Parliament, St Stephens, Chain Bridge, and the Citadella. After a quick visit to fisherman's bastion I felt the beginning of hunger pangs. Walking through sleet that felt more like the cuts from a single blade razor I ducked into a little bistro. The atmosphere was resplendent. This Hun hut served the best dim sum tuna burger accompanied with a bottle of bulls blood. This wine is balanced with bramble berry and cigar box flavors. The full body and silky tannins make this great under eight wine a #qprsuperstar Pairs best with a dip in natural hot springs at the Gellart bath house. *Full disclosure this wine may have been harvested during a rain storm as the flavors are a tad dilute. PS can't wait to try Tokaj.

Vanilla, cinnamon, and graham cracker on the nose. Significant legs on the side of the glass. Looks like a Pinot noir. Flavors remind me of earth and grass.
