A fresh, aromatic, easy-to-understand wine for a friendly afternoon, a terrace or the first glass. It works best when there’s no need to explain the wine — it just feels good to open it.
WINEMAKING GOAL
What was the winemaking goal?
With the Irsai, the task was to turn the variety’s directness into a clean, playful entry-level wine rather than a loud, perfumed one.
