Syrah has been grown from the beginning on one of our most important cru vineyards (Hajnoczy), lying above Paloznak town. The warmer, loessy-marley soils bring out the best of the variety. Lively, spicy, rich and attractive wine. The wine went through a long ageing (24 months) which gives it a round and silky texture. Unfiltered, unrefined, with minimal sulphur content.
