This is what good wine from the Dunaj grape tastes like

Dunaj is an unknown, typically Slovak grape that produces deep red wines with plenty of body and soft tannins. Wines from Dunaj often taste of cherries and a hint of chocolate. That is, if you can find one, because only a few commercial winemakers make Dunaj wine.

Dunaj is the result of vigorous experimentation in Slovakian laboratories in the last century. Slovaks used varieties such as Blaufränkisch, St. Laurent, and Yellow Muscat for this purpose. In 1997, it was officially registered as a wine grape and named after the Danube River, which flows through the capital, Bratislava. Currently, approximately 60 hectares of Dunaj are planted in Slovakia.
