Balla Géza Feketeleanyka/Feteasca Neagra 2022, Miniș, Romania

This 'Black Maiden' lives up to its name – dark and delicious Grape: 100% Feketeleanyka/Feteasca Neagra Year: 2022 Region: Miniș, Romania Alc: 14,4% ABV Size: 0,75 l This Feketeleanyka – or Feteasca Neagra (Black Maiden) – a black grape indigenous to Romania – comes from Transylvania's famous Minis vineyard nestled in the foothills of Arad where the grapes enjoy long sunshine hours on granite-rich soils. The wine is replete with juicy blueberry, black cherry, and warming spice. It is both silky-smooth and tangy, a duality that makes it an ideal pairing with braised or roasted lamb, meaty pastas, sausages, and beef of all styles.
