Szent Donát is a 15-hectare estate located on the stunning hills that run along the north side of
Lake Balaton in Western Hungary. The estate has some of the best vineyards in Csopak, Tihany
and the Kál basin. The winemaker and winery owner, Tamás Kovács, was born into a winemaking
family with long roots in their tiny village of Csopak. They have been farming organically since 2011, and they have been using traditional low-intervention winemaking methods in the cellar since the founding of the winery.
The Rizling (Olaszrizling) Selection is from the Sáfránkert vineyard, rich in 300-million-year-old red Permian clay sandstone. Aromas like melon and pear are met with green fruit and quince on the palate. Salty, textured finish.
