Nose
An intense nose with hints of flowers, citrus, green apple and peach.
Palate
On the palate, its light but dynamic acids, light body and low alcohol make for a pleasant first impression. The palate carries on with the aromas of the nose, and the finish features herbs and lime notes. Despite being a fragrant wine, it is still a wonderful thirst-quenching drink.
Growing Conditions
Kunság is the largest wine region in Hungary, part of the Alföld wine region. Situated between the Danube and Tisza rivers, the total area under cultivation is over 100,000 hectares, of which 18,359 hectares are planted with vines. Soltvadkert, the home of our winery, is located in the middle of the wine region. It is also the largest wine-growing town in the region.
The high number of sunshine hours is of particular importance for the climate of the wine-growing region. The continental climate manifests itself in hot summers and cold winters. The main challenge is the limited rainfall; frosts, which used to be a serious risk factor, are becoming less frequent.
In terms of topography, the wine-growing area is mainly flat. The most common soil types are sandy soils, which vary in composition. In addition to calcareous sands, there are loess loams and alluvial meadow soils.
Winemaking
It started as a table grape in Kunság, we have been working with it in the cellar for two decades and it has become one of the most important grape varieties. In the meantime, we have had time to thoroughly explore and develop the popular and well-known Frittmann Irsai style.
As it is particularly fond of the Hungarian Plain and develops rich aromas on the characteristic sandy soils, it rewards the care and special attention it receives from us and from consumers with an intense floral bouquet and a characterful.
