Kiss Gábor Enigma (Merlot)

The "Enigma" is an excellent Merlot from the Villányi Bocor vineyard, offering a combination of high quality, character, and aging potential. It is characterized by a French clone, small berry size, and thick skin – this gives the wine its density and body, making it "massively beautiful" yet delicately elegant.

• Scent: discrete leatheriness upon opening, followed by notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, anise, dried herbs, and tobacco.
• Taste / character: full-bodied, firm acidity, deep, concentrated fruits, long finish; Enigma wine has a long aging potential.

Producer information

In average years, Gábor does not use systemic agents; if absolutely necessary, he sprays carefully with appropriate agents. Insecticides and herbicides are strictly excluded. He uses natural ground cover between the rows, with regular mowing, and in spring, he sows grass with a mixture of 28 types of grass seeds, which he has been compiling himself for a year, researching mixtures, and consciously shaping the ground cover of the inter-row spaces.
His wines were last inoculated in 2014; since then, they ferment spontaneously, with every batch fermenting within a week. He consciously shortens skin contact for lower tannins and astringency. He uses nutrient salts depending on the vintage and the must's nitrogen content: not in 2017, but it was necessary in 2016 due to low nitrogen levels. Gábor consciously keeps the wines at a lower sulfur level than the permitted (150) level. At the beginning of the processing procedure, he sulfurs once, then the process continues with low total sulfur. He generally bottles with 50-60 total sulfur.
