Szent Don�t is a 16-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 K�l basin. The winemaker and winery owner,
Tam�s Kov�cs, 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 Magma is made from K�kfrankos that was grown on the volcanic soils of the Tihany peninsula. The microclimate of this peninsula (and its tiny crater lakes) gives the wine its unique flavor profile. Smooth and bright, with favors like smashed red berries and black pepper.
Natural fermentation methods, including spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts in
open vats. Whole clusters are processed without sulfur. Grapes are crushed gently. The wine is separated using a basket press with no filtration or fining, then transferred to 225 L used French oak barrels for aging. Low added sulfites.
