"The soul of a single slope, bottled"
HK$280.00
The Story
The Hidaspetre vineyard is Péter Vida's most prized possession — a single south-facing slope of ancient loess soils that has been producing exceptional Kékfrankos for generations. 'Hidaspetre' translates as 'Bridge Stone' — a reference to the ancient stone bridge that once crossed the stream at the foot of the vineyard. This wine is a pure expression of a single place: no blending, no compromise, just the honest voice of one remarkable vineyard.
