Now you can taste our Terroir beer in a special package with the Merlot wine, the material inspired the beer.
In the Hungarian Terroir series, this time we visited Villány wine
region again and together with Tamás Lelovits we created the Spontan
Merlot 2018. The beer was fermented spontaneously with the
microorganisms on the Merlot grape skins and juice, and the fermentation
took place in wine barrels. After fermentation, the beer was aged in
these barrels for another 2 years, and the result was a super exciting
wild ale.
When filled, we have a bronze-colored, slightly tart drink, the aroma
and taste are led by fruity-funky notes with a little wood in the
background. Perhaps the most balanced item in the series so far.

"Merlot
Premium Selection. The vineyard of in Kisharsány in Bocor, exactly two
acres. We replaced the plantation on it, with Merlot variety. And since
it gave us beautiful grape every year, we thought we’d experiment with
it. The result is now bottled. It became „Two Acres” – simple is that "
Elegant look, spicy blackberry scent. Powerful in a sip, barrel
spices complete the basically plum and blackberry led aroma, intense
chocolate and coffee in the finish. Huge, concentrated, red wine, with
great aging potential.
