Vida Családi Borbirtok Petit Bonsai Kadarka 2023 (DRS) is a dry, still red wine made from 100% Kadarka grapes from the Szekszárd wine region in Hungary. The grapes originate from younger vineyards, based on clone selection of old Kadarka vines, grown on plots with loess (lösz) and red clay soil. The wine was fermented with cold maceration and then aged for approximately 6 months in stainless steel tanks, resulting in fresh red fruit aromas, pronounced fruitiness, and balanced acidity. This Petit Bonsai Kadarka 2023 release represents a lighter, fruitier style of Kadarka, with vibrant freshness and an approachable finish.
