Tóth Ferenc Egri Csillag Superior, 2022

The white counterpart of the Egri Bikavér, a Superior quality blend from Eger. The aim of the winery was to produce an elegant, serious, substantial wine with a long ageing potential. It faithfully reflects the face of the Eger Wine Region, the cool climate, beautiful ripeness and refreshing acidity in a deep, layered wine. The four grape varieties were processed and fermented separately, with the final blend created after ageing.

The blend of minimum 4 grape varieties of which minimum 50% has to be a Carpathian Basin grape variety. A dry wine that can be produced in the Classic, Superior and Grand Superior categories.)
