Winemaker’s notes
Tasting note
Thummerer Egri Bikavér displays a deep ruby-red colour with violet highlights. Intense aromas of ripe wild berries, black cherries and redcurrants unfold on the nose, accompanied by spicy notes, delicate tobacco and subtle toasted aromas from barrel ageing. Powerful yet harmonious on the palate, with velvety tannins, lovely structure and elegant spice. The long, balanced finish reveals dark fruit, delicate chocolate and a hint of pepper.
Terroir
The vines grow mainly on volcanic rock.
