This 100 % Kékfrankos wine comes from the top (500m) of the Grand Cru Nagy Eged Vineyard.
The Nimród Kovács Winery is situated in seven continuous cellars on the historic Verőszala Street in Eger. Back in the 18th century, there were hundreds of wine press houses, similar to theirs, which were erected above their representative cellars to handle the onsite processing of grapes. After the grape juice had been fermented, wines were stored in barrels in the cool cellars below. Guided by this tradition, the winery continues to make their wines in a similar way, enhanced by 21st Century technology.
The dense color is followed with concentrated aromas of nutmeg, allspice, black cherry and tobacco. These aromas are continued on the palate by flavors of plum, black cherry and plain chocolate, all tied together with balanced acids and silky tannins. Grand Bleu rewards us with a long and very pleasant finish. This wine will age beautifully in the bottle for many years! Only 2397 bottles were made.
