Egri Bikavér Blaufränkisch Riserva

Eger Estate · Eger · Hungary

Egri Bikavér Blaufränkisch Riserva is an red wine from Hungary, in the Eger region (Northern Hungary, at the foothills of the Bükk mountains, east of Budapest.), made principally from Blaufränkisch. a reserve-tier Egri Bikavér blaufränkisch that represents the region's premium bottled expression.

In character, this core tier delivers the classic blaufränkisch profile — dark cherry, black pepper, smoky spice, earth — with the structural stamp of Eger and a medium-to-full-bodied presence. This profile reflects published sources, winery information and regional reference material, researched editorially rather than tasted blind.
