Stock information
The Betsek vineyard is located in the middle of the valley that lies to the east of Mád, thus it has an especially protected, unique mesoclimate. The soil is also special: a mix of yellow clay and very soft, white weathered tuff, and for this reason, it gives a mineral wine that’s strong in character. The average age of the vines here is a minimum of 50 years, with classic, small-bunch Furmint vines.
Altogether 946 bottles were made.
Residual sugar: 261 g/l
Parcel: 0137/3 hrsz., 0.9 ha

„I’ve been saying for 20 years that we’d stop adding new areas. However, we just can’t stop ourselves! Now it’s the andesite soil of Tállya and its five first-class vineyards that excite me. Once it accounted for most of the grapes in the wine region. My wife’s hairdresser has even asked me why I go there so often. We discover 800-year-old vineyard names and each parcel hides a surprise. The 2011 wines seem suspiciously good: that’s when it’s the most nerve wrecking for the winemaker. Again it showed that there is no recipe in winemaking; the practice of walking the vineyards and experimenting cannot be replaced by anything. Every day we try to make our wines believing that the wine region will once again be at the place where it should be.”
