Story: Mátra is not primarily known for Cabernet Franc, yet this wine is surprisingly complex and balanced with great ageing potential. The 15.5% alcohol remains hidden behind the full body and the intense fruitiness. it is recommended to lay a few bottles in the cellar and try them in 5 and 10 years.
