ZELNA BalatonBor Olaszrizling 2023

£14.90

BalatonBor is a juicy and refreshing Hungarian white wine made from native Olaszrizling grapes grown on the shores of Lake Balaton.

Working with beautifully ripe fruit hand-picked from the limestone Farkó-kő vineyard, this certified vegan wine was fermented at low temperatures to preserve the grapes' incredible freshness and fruitiness.

This is a pure and elegant drink that opens with a lovely honeyed citrus character that melts into notes of green apple. It's an easy-drinking yet layered vintage with a complex palate of quince, peach, and white stone fruit flavours, providing a real depth of character, making this an appealing wine not just for warm summer days.

This Olaszrizling would go perfectly with salads, grilled chicken, fish and seafood dishes.

Zelna Winery, Balaton Wine Region - Protected Designation of Origin (PDO)

The story of this small family winery started in 2014 with only a couple of hectares under vine. Since then, they have grown and are now making wines from 15 hectares and three different vineyards spread across prime areas of Northern Balaton. The bedrock of their philosophy is sustainable farming and organic wines, focusing on the native variety best suited to bringing alive this unique terroir, the olaszrizling. While lacking decades of experience, the young and energetic team is eager to experiment and learn more about their plantations with every passing vintage, showcasing the character of their vineyards and the way they see the world around them, organically.
