Red fruit and stems. Overly stemmy palate. $8

Tasted like a wine made of vine not grape. Dry and wooden.

Very interesting Red Blend from Hungary. I generally love the Zweigelt varietal, but it is surprisingly not the cornerstone of this wine. (Thirteen different varietals (must include three) can be blended to make Egri Bikavér).
Aromas and flavors of Cranberries, Raspberries and peppery spice. Light color and body. Short on the finish but very pleasant. Thank you Ron B. Revisited in June 2021. Aging beautifully!

A mixture of fruits hinting toward fresh berry's. Light and fruity.

I served this at a wine tasting party, and then men loved it. Maybe for the name? It is earthy and dry. The bottle was empty before the night was over.
