Bukolyi Marcell "Kisfiam" Egri Bikavér, Eger, Hungary 2020

A blend of 50% Kékfrankos, 35% Syrah, 10% Pinot Noir, and 5% Cabernet Franc.

The Kisfiam (“my boy”) is the only certified organic Egri Bikavér (Bull’s Blood). It is characteristic of the blend, with spicy forest fruits, vibrant acidity and medium tannins. Rich, structured and lively. Notes of cherry cobbler, herbs and spices on the nose, with raspberries and zippy grapefruit on the palate and an earthy long finish.

Spontaneous fermentation in open vats, followed by aging in used Hungarian oak for 6 months. Unfiltered and unfined.

After 10 years making wine for the family winery, Marcell Bukolyi struck out on his own and formed his own winery in 2016. The winery is 14 hectares, and it is the only fully certified organic winery in Eger. It is located on the foot of the Nagy-Eged hill, with rich chalk soils and a volcanic subsoil.

Certified organic.
