The Csóka is a true rarity. This indigenous jackdaw grape variety has practically disappeared from our country. Due to the uniqueness of the variety, we decided to save it and re-establish it on our estate. In the spring of 2004, we embarked on an interesting experiment with the Pécs Viticulture and Oenology Research Institute, and now we are the proud owners of 4000 vines! Csóka 2019, with its unique character, excitingly brings out the beauties of the great Villány vintage. Dried cherry and cool, earthy aroma and flavour notes are present simultaneously. The truly silky acidity and velvety tannins are reminiscent of the Burgundy world.

The 2019 vintage brought a cooling period after a warm spring, with average rainfall. The high annual heat sum had a positive effect on ripening – thus, the taste, aroma, and flavour notes are concentrated in the wines of this vintage. The harvest months were characterised by little rainfall, long periods of sunshine, and cool nights – thanks to this, we were able to harvest grapes rich in acidity in the 2019 vintage.
