Behind the eye-catching Eurovision-esque label lies an elegant blend of native Hungarian varietals. Floral with notes of almonds, white-fleshed peaches, gooseberries, fennel and a touch of mint. Youthful and fun. You’ll love this if you like a crisp, fresh Sauvignon Blanc.

Last summer, we were contacted by Holdvolgy, a vineyard run by siblings Pascal and Natalia Demko, whose mother moved from France to Hungary in the 1960s. Pascal’s search for a special vineyard for his father’s birthday which led to the purchase of parts of the historic 7 Grand Crus of Md in Tokaj. After tasting their wines in Paris, I was captivated by their exceptional quality, both dry and sweet. Tokaj wines, with their exotic aromas and flavors, surpass even my first love, Sauternes. Remarkably, their sweet wines, at 12% alcohol, remain unchanged after four months, suggesting they could be enjoyed for centuries to come.
