Villany - Hungary
Harslevelu
"This is a fantastic wine made from a grape you've never heard of. Harslevelu is a white grape that is native to Hungary (but has spread to a few other countries) and is also known as 'Linden Leaf' because it represents the dried fruitiness of the linden leaf smell. A touch of musk, lime leaf and flower, yellow peach, dried mango and baked apples on the nose. This wine has spent a decent amount of time, for a white, on skins and with lees. It has texture because of this and a bit of a hue but hardly an orange wine nor does it have gritty tannins. It is textural without being overwhelming. An interesting and exciting wine, no question."
- Dry White Food Match
- Product Shipping
Dry Whites are very versatile and are best suited to foods that are higher in acidity (vinaigrettes etc.) or in fat – the natural acidity in the wines will cut through the foods.
They are perfect accompanied by:
Fresh and Roasted Vegetables
Starch-rich foods
Fish and Shellfish
