]]> Exciting and complex wine. Intense nose with spices, vanilla and black pepper, along with a mixture of blueberry and blackberry notes. The palate is delicate, with soft tannins and a long lasting, lively aftertaste.

The post Homola Syrah 2019 appeared first on Hungarianwines.

]]> 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.

Story: We planted Syrah in 2010 for the first time – at that time it was considered strange and rare, since the variety had not been widespread. The variety seems to enjoy Mátra, it has good characteristics both in the vineyard and the cellar. This medium bodied, intensely fruity wine with spicy-peppery notes makes everyone fall in love with red wines easily.

]]> After opening the bottle, mild black fruit aromas meet our senses, gradually revealing the taste of pepper, and a very delicate leathery and smoky aftertaste. As time passes after opening the bottle, so does the wine open up as well, the fruit-driven nature of the wine intensifies, followed by the spiciness inherited from the oak cask. A well-balanced wine with a very enjoyable finish.

Story: Our relationship with Shiraz did not have a trouble-free start, yet it kept luring us until we finally gave in. The first three vintages were made of purchased grapes and we planted our own Shiraz grapevines based on the experience that we gathered during those years. Regarding the name we decided to remain at what we believe is the original. The wine got its name after the ancient, yet still existing Persian city, Shiraz. This is the reason why we use this name, even if we are aware that the name Syrah is more popular in Europe.
