Maurer – Kövidinka 2023
Hailing from the storied Kövidinka vineyard, planted in 1925 and steadfastly organic, this wine is a testament to centuries-old Subotica winemaking traditions.
Ungrafted vines, nurtured without harmful chemicals, define its authenticity.
Grapes, harvested after the first frost in late October, undergo a seven-day skin maceration before aging for six months in oak barrels.
The result is a complex, naturally expressive orange wine with a refreshing 10% alcohol content.
The nose is a captivating blend of citrus blossom, melon, and tropical fruit, underpinned by a floral elegance.
Quince and pear notes dominate the palate, warmed by subtle baking spices.
A pronounced mineral character, reflecting the unique sandy soil of Nosza Hill, adds intriguing layers of complexity.
This wine is a harmonious interplay of textures and flavors. Its vibrant acidity is balanced by the richness imparted by old oak, creating a wine that is both refreshing and complex.
The light-bodied palate showcases the grape’s nuances, culminating in a long, clean finish.
