From one of southern Hungary’s most celebrated single vineyards, the 2023 ‘Ördögárok’ Villányi Franc is a rich, generous Cabernet Franc with ripe red and black fruit, a delicate salty-smoky edge and hints of coffee. The mouthfeel is plush and the tannins soft, thanks to 16 months in Hungarian oak barriques. Made by seventh-generation winemaker Andrea Gere, it’s a serious red for braised lamb, short ribs or roasted eggplant.
