Egri Kadarka Grand Superior 2015
Thanks to the weather in 2015, we were able to pick our grapes on the 29th of September. It has the typical „Kadarka” tone in its color, which is followed by its nice characteristic smell. This exciting and unique taste keeps its form for long years. The highly restrained produced grapes, after the harvest, were fermented in wood barrels for long months.
Could be the perfect choice for lamb or red meat poultry, served at 18-20°C.

Egri Kadarka Grand Superior 2015: mature refinement
A single-variety Kadarka of Grand Superior quality: a vintage rarity that worthily represents Hungarian wine culture
The 2015 vintage offered a special opportunity to show the finest face of Kadarka. At the late September harvest the grapes were processed slightly shrivelled and perfectly ripe, so the wine was concentrated and long-lived from the very start.
The Egri Kadarka Grand Superior 2015 has a classic, light ruby colour, and its nose shows the well-known spicy and fruity world of the variety. The wine underwent two weeks of fermentation on the skins, followed by long ageing in oak barrels, which highlights its uniqueness and rich structure.
Taste and character
- Colour: Pale ruby red with a translucent hue
- Nose: Spicy fruitiness: red berries, allspice, dried flowers
- Palate: Refined acidity, ripe tannins, a long finish and complexity
Serving and food pairing
Especially recommended:
- With lamb dishes (rosemary lamb chops, roast lamb)
- With dark-meat poultry (duck breast, pigeon)
- With spicy Hungarian ragouts and stews
- With aged hard cheeses
Serving temperature: 18–20 °C
Decanting: not essential, but 15–30 minutes of aeration is recommended
Origin and winemaking philosophy
This 100% Kadarka comes from some of the finest sites of the Eger wine region, from strictly yield-limited grapes. The complexity and long ageing potential that lift the variety’s typical lightness to Grand Superior level make it not just a rarity but a collector’s wine.

Különleges, gyönyörű bor.

Ez az igazán hölgyeknek való, tökéletes bor. Illatában igen kedves és vonzó. Elsősorban a kerti bogyós gyümölcsök jutnak róla az eszünkbe. Egy sármosan behízelgő típus,
szinte azonnal rabúlejt, nem tolakszik, semmi savérzet. Simogatóan lágy, selymes és lekerekedett. Ízében a feketeribizli és egy könnyed fűszeres íz dominál.
Ez egy igazi nyári, kiülős, merengős, naplemente nézős bor, amely szinte észrevétlenül belesimul az adott pillanat hangulatába. Nem szól csak csendben elvarázsol…
Kacsa, sertésszűz, strucc, bárány sültek, pecsenyék mellé ajánlom, vagy csak úgy magában piknikhez, beszélgetésekhez. Nem fog csalódást okozni.
