Nagy-Eged Egri Bikavér Grand Superior 2021 – St. Andrea Winery

7.100 rsd

Nagy‑Eged dűlő Egri Bikavér Grand Superior 2021 is a dry, complex red wine from the premium Nagy‑Eged parcel in the Eger region (Hungary) with pronounced dark berry aromas, minerality, and a long finish, reflecting the terroir of one of Hungary’s most esteemed locations.

Description

Nagy‑Eged dűlő Egri Bikavér Grand Superior 2021 represents the pinnacle of Hungarian red wine – a wine from the prestigious Nagy‑Eged plot with characteristic terroir influence and a complex profile. The blend of Kékfrankos, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah yields intense dark berry aromas and mineral tones, a pronounced structure, and a long finish that reflects the ideal climate-soil combination of the Eger region.

The nose is dominated by black cherries, blackberry, and blackcurrant, alongside graphite, earthy, and spicy traces; on the palate, the wine is full-bodied with rich tannins and balanced acidity. Aging for 16 months in oak barrels further contributes to its complexity and depth, giving it aging potential.

Elegantly pairs with rich meat and game dishes, roasted sauces, and spicy stews.
