First!!! Big surprise thanks to our friends at Taste Hungary. Very well balanced Bulls Blood. Can’t wait to sample the rest. — 5 years ago
Very interesting Red Blend from Hungary. I generally love the Zweigelt varietal, but it is surprisingly not the cornerstone of this wine. (Thirteen different varietals (must include three) can be blended to make Egri Bikavér).
Aromas and flavors of Cranberries, Raspberries and peppery spice. Light color and body. Short on the finish but very pleasant. Thank you Ron B. Revisited in June 2021. Aging beautifully! — 6 years ago
Deep ruby red. Upon opening nose has dark berries, cherry and blueberry jam. When wine opens up the nose picks up more deeper tones. On palate this is midweight, with nicely balanced acidity, full of sour cherry, granberries, blueberries, black currants, powdery if firm tannins giving shape towards the end. Wine leaves granberry, cherry and some peppery tones on medium+ aftertaste. This is medium bodied well made and food friendly wine that clearly benefits from few more years in the bottle to develop complexity. Good stuff — 5 years ago

Online this shows as a blend of 55% Kekfrankos, 23% Cab Franc, 12% Pinot Noir, 5% Zweigeit and 5% Blauberger with 14.0% ABV. New barrel and rich fruit aromas, quite youthful and nicely complex, long finish, very nice!! — 2 years ago
