Hegyem Cabernet Franc BIO

General Description

The Hegyem Cabernet Franc BIO is an elegant, full-bodied red wine from Hungary. Cabernet Franc is a late-ripening grape variety that always fully ripens in Hungary, resulting in a rich and concentrated flavor profile. This wine is made from perfectly ripened grapes and has undergone 12 months of aging in wood, which gives the wine depth and complexity. With its distinctive character, this is a wine for enthusiasts seeking something unique.

Tasting Notes

The Hegyem Cabernet Franc BIO offers a generous aroma of dark red ripe fruit, such as cherries and blackberries. Subtle hints of spiciness, green pepper, and a touch of graphite enrich the aroma experience. On the palate, the wine is full and refined, with an excellent balance between ripe fruit tones and soft, elegant tannins. The oak aging adds layers of complexity, with a pleasant long finish that invites another glass.

Recommended Dishes

This Cabernet Franc BIO pairs excellently with various dishes. It is perfect with grilled meats, such as lamb chops or ribeye, but also beautifully complements roasted vegetables or a hearty mushroom risotto. The spicy notes of the wine also make it a good choice for game dishes or stews. Serve this wine at a temperature of 16-18°C for the best tasting experience.
