Description

Vojtek Portugieser 2021

Vojtek Portugieser is one of a kind! Dark ruby colour with a black core. An enchanting expression of the varietal that captivates you from the start with its light blackcurrant and sparklingly spicy nose. Light tannins and a touch of tart lively acidity enliven its texture. Sweet black cherries and plums fill the palate, accompanied by vibrant spiciness of pepper, nutmeg and green peppers on the finish.

100% Blauer Portugieser. The fruit comes from Vojtek's 8-hectare areas in the famous Villány wine region in Hungary. Villány is the warmest and sunniest wine region in Hungary with a sub-Meditteranean climate and southern exposure. The vines grow in brown forest soil on limestone. 

Collecting the grapes authentically and pressing them. Fermentation in open vats with cooling, malolactic fermentation, no ageing.

Ageing Potential: Keep until 2025.
