Varietally correct, though a little hot and a little thin on the mid palate. Given what you can get out of the Loire at this price point, hard to love it other than as a curiosity. Still, nice palate refresher with red sauce Italian, which helped fill in the holes and round this into a satisfying quaff.

Hungary Cabernet Franc tasting: 3h decant. Very aromatic, but mild. Flowery, tart cherry, cherry, a bit of vanilla, warm earth, elegant. Balanced and round palate, friendly wine.

Hungarian wines: Soft, high extraction, vanilla nose. Soft and caressing on the palate. Smoky fruits, some smoked meat, rather soft tannins, friendly. Overall still young, but very good.
