Hungary's warmest and most southerly wine region, occupying the limestone and loess slopes of the Villány Mountains near the Croatian border in Baranya county. Villány is Hungary's premier red wine region, specialising in Cabernet Franc — a variety that achieves an extraordinary depth and mineral complexity on Villány's limestone soils that has drawn comparisons to the finest expressions from Saint-Emilion and the Loire. The region also produces excellent Merlot, Portugieser, and the indigenous Kadarka, but it is Cabernet Franc that has established Hungary's international fine wine reputation.
