Palya - Kekfrankos 2021
Palya - Kekfrankos 2021
A full-bodied red, packed with blackcurrant and red berries paired with Christmas spices a hint of pencil shaving, black pepper and forest floor. Super concentrated and rich on the palate with round tannins, great depth and a very long finish.

Vinification
The grapes were hand de-stemmed and fermented in open vat fermenter for 10 days with very gentle punch down. The juice ages in Hungarian oak barrel and fibreglass for 10 months before it is bottled without fining, filtration or the addition of sulphites.
2021 was a very warm and dry year resulting wines with more colour depth and crunchy fruit.
