Kovács Nimród Winery – a fantastical sounding name which is making a name for itself in Hungary... If you Google 'Nimród', you're presented with a mixed bag of definitions including a skilful hunter, the great-grandson of Noah, and a skyplane but you can now add to this a world-class winery located in Eger, one of Hungary’s most premium wine regions.
Kékfrankos thrives in Hungary, especially in the Eger region. Silky, this single vineyard wine has lots of juicy red fruit and is given complexity from 22 months in oak. Owner, Kovács Nimród, loves jazz and this wine is named after his hankering towards the Blues!
Kovács Nimród Monopole Blues Kékfrankos wine shows a deep ruby colour. Aromas of red cherry, red currant and hints of leather. The medium bodied palate has deliciously refreshing acidity with lots of juicy red fruit character and spiciness on the finish. Pairs well with cheese, pork, lamb, and sauces made of forest fruits.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
