Fresh citrus, green apple, white peach and hint of white flowers on the nose, elegant, clean and crisp with a round finish.
Bott Frigyes cultivates 10 hectares next to the River Garam, at a height of 250 metres above sea level.
The vineyards are located on the southern slopes of the Muzsla Hills, in the heart of the historic wine region in the geographical triangle defined by the River Garam and the Danube. The soil is made up of a clay layer on top of a volcanic bedrock, rich in limestone and minerals. Bott Frigyes believes in the outstanding qualities and uniqueness of the region that lies next to the Garam.
He trains the vines on a low cordon system in order to enhance the microflora on the grapes. For fermentation and ageing he prefers to use various sizes of old Hungarian oak. The aim is to make exciting and elegant wines, which express the terroir to the fullest.
Frigyes favours the traditional varieties bestowed by the wine region: Furmint, Hárslevelu, Juhfark, Kékfrankos and Kadarka.
The grapes are whole bunch pressed for gentle extraction. Then, the juice is transferred by gravity to stainless steel and various size (225l, 300l and 400l) of Zemplén oak barrels. That is where it ferments spontaneously and ages on the lees for 6 – 8 months.
