This dark and sumptuous delicacy represents the pinnacle of our work.
 

Its fragrant and fruity aromas come from four distinct grape varieties grown in the sunbathed vineyards of Baranya, Slavonia: Riesling, Chardonnay, Traminer, and Gray Pinot. Eight years of maturation in a Slavonian oak cask and a Bordeaux wine cask have yielded a rich and delectable treat that you’ll want to savor for a long time.
