Káli Balázs Öregtőkék Olaszrizling, 2020

An Upper-Balaton classic, with flavours recalling the largest basalt mountain in Hungary. On the nose it has green apple, white flesh peach, wild flowers and a hint of vanilla. The grapes were grown on the volcanic Fekete Mountain, and the wine expresses its typical characteristics: the acidic, greenish and salty nuances of the greasy black earth and clay, and the basalt. It is a round, flavoursome wine with a subtle grapefruit bitterness and a lingering saline notes.
