Product Description
MÁTRA
“Királyleányka“
Region : One of the larger wine regions in Hungary located south of the Mátra mountains. The total growing area is 32497 hectares. Only 6070 hectares are planted with vines today. The region’s climate is a tempered continental one. The Mátra mountains protects the vineyards on the slopes from northerly winds.
The region’s decisive geological formations are volcanic rocks such as pyroxenic andesite and tuffs of andesite and rhyolite, covered by alluvial gravel and diverse clay.
This soil typically yields crisp and aromatic wines with high alcohol content that can be quite full-bodied in the best years.
Mátraalja is the only region with Tokaj in Hungay where the noble mold called cladosporium cellare thrives in the cellars.
