In the Szekszárd region Bikavér needs to have Kékfrankos and Kadarka in the blend. Jani always have 50% Kékfrankos as his base and 10% Kadarka. The other varieties change by year between Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zweigelt. He ages the wine 1 year in old barrels, that results in an elegant and complex wine. His Bikavér represents complexity and elegance, coming from the nice acidity structure. The 2018 vintage shows more primary fresh fruit aromas, such as blackberry and blueberry with a hint of white pepper. Amazing wine to pair with roasts, tomato based dishes, or hearty beans. Definitely an ageable wine.
