Hello, my name is Mihaly Fabsk. We are here on behalf of Expert Village. This wine is one of my favorite wines. You can say this is a nice everyday wine. It's made from Kekfrankos grape variety which is the most widely-planted grape variety in Hungary. The vintage year is 2005, so it's a quite fresh, fruity, young red wine - light to medium bodied, and it is grown in the Sopron wine region, which is close to Austria, and this is a typical grape variety in this region as well. So it's a nice food-friendly wine and you can have it everyday. It reminds me some red fruits flavor. Actually, it's a little bit similar to Pinot Noir. It's elegant, it is fresh acidity, but low in tannin, so it's not very flavorful and we can say it's a nice everyday wine. It's made by a great producer which is one of the best producer in Austria as well, and also in Hungary, it's became very famous.
