KREINBACHER Prestige Brut

Prestige Brut is one of the finest traditional-method Hungarian dry champagnes and serves as the flagship sparkling wine of the famous Kreinbacher Estate.

This cosmopolitan blend features Furmint grapes, which impart a mineral and crisp character, while Chardonnay adds elegance.

The wine offers a lovely bouquet of lime, floral notes, and stone fruits, complemented by a tantalising brioche aroma that adds layers of complexity. On the palate, expect vibrant citrus fruits alongside rich notes from aging on the lees. The subtle bubbles highlight the minerality of the Furmint grapes, while the gentle mousse provides a long aftertaste of grapefruit and a hint of salinity.

With a perfectly balanced structure and refined details, this exceptional vintage is suitable not only for special occasions but also for those who appreciate the best at all times.

Food pairing

This dry sparkling wine is excellent on its own for celebrating special moments. It pairs wonderfully with sturgeon caviar, smoked salmon, and seafood. Its creamy fruitiness also complements soft cheese and mascarpone, as well as crêpe pancakes and strawberry sponge cakes.
