Description

If we had to name the most famous red wine in Hungary, it would undoubtedly be the Kopar from Attila Gere. This bright, rich red wine from the Villány region was the first in its category and led the way for a generation of winemakers to make bold, full-bodied red wines in the area. While the first vintages were cabernet sauvignon-based and heavy in oak use, the latest vintages of Kopar are an elegant cabernet franc-cabernet sauvignon-merlot blend that is fruit-forward yet balanced, showing the best of Villány’s warm soils and an excellent vintage. Kopar is still one of the best wines in its category and shows just how far Hungarian winemaking has come in the past decades. Aged in barrels for 16-20 months.

About the Gere winery

Attila Gere has been one of the pioneering winemakers in Hungary since the end of communism. He produces a wide range of wines, but focuses primarily on full-bodied red wines from the warm soils of Villány, which are highly praised by critics, and over the years has built his winery into one of the leading ones in the country, growing wine on 70 hectares. He is currently converting the production to organic processes and Attila’s daughter Andi is taking on a steadily growing role in the management of the business. Many other wineries that have achieved prominence in recent years have not been able to keep up with the new trends and new generations of winemaking, but the Gere winery continues to innovate and produce great wines on a consistent basis.
