Product Notes

Sauska Kékfrankos wine, a product of Hungary's renowned Sauska estate, represents an elegant blend of tradition and sophistication. A ravishing red wine, it thrives upon subtle spiciness, intertwined with bewitching berry aromas, and a hint of oak. The balanced acidity, coupled with refined tannins, results in an alluringly smooth aftertaste. Its intense ruby colour entices the drinkers, while the captivating full-bodied depth hints at its complexity. Best served alongside hearty dishes, it imparts an unrivalled richness, making it a favoured choice for wine connoisseurs and beginners alike.

Tasting Notes

Huge team favorite, in top form in this vintage. Velvety red color, delicate acids and very soft tannins. An outburst of red fruits, cranberries, raspberries, black cherries lead the nose and the palate completed by ripe fleshy black cherries. The balance of aromas and taste is simply delightful.
