Attila Gere This 70 hectare estate in Villany, is one of Hungary’s most well known wineries. They will be showing new wines that have never graced these shores before including one of the top wines of the region, Kopar, and a wine from a variety called Portugieser sometimes also known as Oporto which has absolutely nothing to do with Portugal what-so-ever!!
St Andrea Hungary’s wine icon and wine-maker of the year in 2009, Dr György Lőrincz, is amongst those rejuvenating the country’s winemaking. His St Andrea winery is amongst the leaders in re-establishing important Hungarian varietals such as the white Furmint and Hárslevelü and the peppery, red Kadarka.
Nimrod Kovacs Meet Monika Kovacs in London, and talk to her about this fascinating (principally on-trade) project owned by the ex head of HBO the movie channel. Interesting branding (connections/feelings – e.g. rapsody and soul), single variety Furmint, minimal intervention, minimal chemicals, restricted yield. Top notch stuff!
