Gere Attila Pinceszete Kopar Solus Merlot 2007, Villany Ungarn
Purpur farge, rik og dyp. Briljant tekstur, smooth og Bordeauxaktig. Jeg var helt sikker på østside og dette var en morsom vin ! God balanse, helt ren. Bløt som en Pomerol, ryggrad som en Petrus. 91 poeng. (89 poeng og kr. 526,- på WS) Medtatt av Thomas.

Solus is a 100% Merlot only produced in excellent years, exclusively from grapes grown in the vineyard called Kopár in the DHC - Villány. Kopár which means “barren” is a reference to the sparse loess on limestone soil the vineyards are planted on. These low yielding, densely planted vines are the key to the wines quality. In Latin, SOLUS means unique, SOL means Sun, here it describes the singularity of the wine and its relation to nature. The wine has a lush bouquet of black macerated fruit, licorice and cocoa, the tannins are velvety fine, and the finish is long and nuanced.
