Heimann and Sons Kadarka Szekszárd

Szekszárd, Hungary
A pure Kadarka from sustainable loess vineyards in the heart of Szekszárd — one of Hungary's most ancient and important native red varieties vinified without compromise. Translucent ruby-garnet with aromas of sour cherry, dried rose, fresh herbs, wild pepper, and earthy loam. Silky, light-textured with good acidity and only moderate tannin — a wine of delicacy and aromatic interest unlike any other Central European red. The quintessential food wine of the Pannonian tradition.
complement
The most Hungarian of Hungarian dishes with the country's most Hungarian grape — Kadarka's light body and bright acidity lift the rich, paprika-sauced stuffed cabbage without competing with its complexity.

complement
Kadarka's sour cherry and dried herb notes mirror the cherry sauce precisely. Duck's moderate richness is well-matched to the wine's light-medium body while gnocchi absorbs the sauce.

complement
The wine's delicate aromatic character and fresh herb notes bridge to the mint and cucumber accompaniments. Its light body suits the freshness of yogurt-marinated lamb.

complement
Kadarka's red fruit and light tannin are natural companions for soft-rind cheese. Red currant jelly echoes its sour cherry character while walnuts bridge its earthy depth.
