What is Irsai Olivér?

Irsai Olivér is a Hungarian white grape variety that was created in 1930 by crossing two native varieties. It was later used to develop the widely beloved but impossibly named Cserszegi Fűszeres.

The grape produces dry wines characterized by their fragrant aromas reminiscent of grape blossoms. With a light body, lower alcohol content, and refreshing fruitiness, this wine is highly drinkable and is perfect for those who enjoy Sauvignon Blanc or Muscat.


Food Pairing

It goes well with poultry or light vegetable dishes, and it also complements spicy Asian cuisine. You can even mix it with sparkling water or club soda to make a delightful white wine spritzer to enjoy in the sunshine.
