Szõke Mátyás and Zoltan Matra Királyleányka – 2007 – 9.4 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

A native grape of Hungary–don’t let the spelling or pronouncation get in the way of enjoying a great wine–it is remarkably easy to pronounce and unbelievably easy to enjoy.  Probably a combination of two grapes  Kövérszőlő and Leányka.  this wine should be in your wine vocabulary and in particular this producers version.   this wine offers a delight combination of dryness balanced with high acid mid-range alcohol.   Notes of pear and Calville Blanc d’Hiver apple (yes this specific apple)–which I have only found at the Greenmarket at Union Square in New York, hint of Meyer lemon zest, blanketed with a kiss of cardamom, cinnamon and almond.   Great to pair with Asian fare and seafood.
