Bock Kékfrankos 2018 from Villány

Another good Kékfrankos from Villány. That southern wine region is rather known from Cabernets and Merlots , I wonder if Kékfrankos is getting now more attention from winemakers.

Bock’s entry level red. Well made. Authentic Villányi style, quite traditional. No new oak, no sweetness, it’s rather savoury. Spicy rather than fruity, showing the ripeness of its sunny climate but not a hint of overripeness. A smooth palate with nicely integrated acidity, it’s supple, drinks so well, easy to enjoy.
