Olaszrizling (better known as Welschriesling) is one of the most important white Hungarian wine grapes. It gives Hungarians drinking pleasure during their warm summers. They are usually tight-fresh, slim and thirst-quenching. Sometimes a bit boring. That is why we chose this organic Olaszrizling from the Dutch winemaker Cisca Ansem.| Color: | White | Taste profile: | Fresh and dry | Country: | Hungary |

Although the small wine district of Pécs in the south of Hungary, with only 600 hectares of vineyards, is hardly known outside Hungary, wine growing there is anything but new. Already in Roman times, Pécs was known as the Gateway to the Balkans. Several trade routes came together there. In the nineteenth century, white grapes were grown there for the Hungarian 'champagne', which was made in Budapest and supplied the Austro-Hungarian Empire with its bubbles.
