A unique Hungarian white wine: kabar 2019 from Péter Pince

 

This might be the best edition of this wine yet. Kabar can improve with a bit of ageing, a point proved by the also great 2017, so I’m looking forward how this 2019 will look in a few years time…

Aromatic, elegant and serious. Freshness combined with nutty, creamy oak aged character. Exotic fruits in caramell dressing. Fills every corner of the mouth, viscous and soft. Outstanding lenght and the aftertaste intensity. Condrieu-like in a way, but has its own personality, and so clean and precise. Great wine. 90 points. 5000 HUF from the producer.
