Teleki Inspiráció Villányi Franc Bio 2022, Villány
Let us introduce one of the medal winner Teleki wines. Teleki Inspiráció Villányi Franc 2022 is the first organic wine of the estate (the cover photo features vintage 2019, which was not organic yet). “Quite deep ruby colour. The nose is bursting with fruitiness, red and forest fruits. When we smell the wine, throughout the whole experience we can enjoy a subtle toasty, oaky scent. The velvety, full-bodied palate is rich and full of life.Forest fruits are also present here, discreetly complemented by the savoury smoky-oaky flavours from the barrel ageing. An elegant, complex and exciting wine with a long finish and ageing potential.”
The retail price on the winery webshop is only 2999 HUF (approximately 7.5 EUR).
