Dúzsi Tamás Estate Wine Cuvée – Ó Vörös Birtokbor 2012 (Szekszárd)

Description

This cuvée is a privileged gem of the Duzsi winery, its predecessor was their first wine (Kékfrankos- Merlot cuvée in 1994). 

Later, their vintage 2003 won the best value for money in the Hungarian wine market on the “Master of Wine” competition.

Vintage 2004 was awarded a silver medal in Mindus Vini 2008. 

Varietes: Kékfrankos, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, and pinot noir 
Colour: Opaque ruby red. 
Nose: Fruity aromas of black berries, dark chocolate and beetrooty notes appear together with certain spiciness. 
Palate: Dry. A medium bodied wine with firm tannins & elegant acidic structure. A certain warmth deriving from the alcohol causes a long finish with ripe hints. 

Best with spicy meat dishes, pasta & risotto al rucola or simply pizza with fresh basil. The perfect wine for a neat italian evening.
