Szekszárd Szekszárd wine district Founded in 2004
Artisanal natural red wines, aged in wooden barrels, made through spontaneous fermentation
About the winery
Dániel Pince, founded in 2004, is a Szekszárd winery dedicated to natural winemaking. In its production environment shaped by wood, brick, and loess, wines are made through open fermentation, allowing the grapes to mature naturally. The winemaker's philosophy is to preserve the health of the grapes and wine through their natural flora, so only physical characteristics assist natural processes without chemical intervention.
The approximately 11,500 vines in the Porkoláb valley mainly grow kékfrankos and zweigelt, as well as international varieties such as cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon. The grapes are aged in Hungarian oak barrels for at least two years, where malic acid is spontaneously converted and fermentation residues clarify. After bottling, the living wines continue to mature in the bottle.
Grape varieties
Current range
Kékfrankos, Zweigelt, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon
Restrained and elegant aroma with red berries, fine herbal notes and rose pepper. The taste is characterized by impeccable balance, harmonious body and pleasant tannin structure.
Kékfrankos
Beautiful, dark ruby color with plenty of glycerin and slight carbonation. Floral aroma and lots of cherry, with pleasant tannins from the grape skin rounded by anise.
Kékfrankos
Rich fruity and cherry aroma, resolutely floral. Fine Byzantine spices, almost sweet, rum-cherry taste with rock candy in the finish.
Kékfrankos
Purple-edged with ruby color, and when swirled, a stained-glass window appears on the glass wall. Pleasant spicy and cherry aroma with dark berries. Completely dry, outstanding elegance, harmonious body and pleasant alcohol.
Kékfrankos, Zweigelt
Floral and fruity, full-bodied. Its fine sweetness is balanced by a pinch of paprika, then reminiscent of a blend of blueberry, rowan, wood and black tea.
Kékfrankos, Zweigelt
Cognac cherry. Dark ruby color, lovely floral aroma, later woody-cedar character comes to the fore. Rich, full-bodied, with a sweet-bitter finish that evokes memories of great journeys.
Kékfrankos
The fire of Szekszárd sun captured in a bottle. Kékfrankos-based blend, infinitely concentrated, deep, full-bodied wine. Reserved but complex and exciting aroma. Creamy, thick texture with silky tannin structure and beautiful acidity.
Merlot
Pomegranate color, thick, glycerously dense, plum jam-like, aniseed. Plenty of tannin, fine sweetness in the taste, herbal finish is delightful.
Merlot
Off-dry merlot that fermented naturally without added yeast. After short oak barrel aging, it was bottled unfiltered, containing sulfur dioxide.
Cabernet Sauvignon, Kékfrankos
A pure and straightforward interpretation of Cabernet Sauvignon built on a Kékfrankos base. The aroma profile features blackcherry, blackcurrant and plum, followed by coffee, chocolate and peppery-minty spice.
Kékfrankos, Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon
A powerful interpretation of Szekszárd terroir. Cabernet placed on a Kékfrankos-Zweigelt base, a prestige wine and one of the highest quality offerings.
Kékfrankos, Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon
Stands out among wines from its own and surrounding vintages. Softer and more velvety than any nearby or distant. The next element in the Bleu Fleur 2009 and Merlot 2011 line.
Merlot, Kékfrankos, Zweigelt
Exceptional, surprising. It sparkles due to its own secondary fermentation, life still bubbles within. Young, cheeky, unusual, but not ready. Raspberry-rock candy, very fruity, its powerful tannins sketch its future.
Cabernet Franc
Pure interpretation of Cabernet Franc that conveys the winemaker's intellectual expression. Elegant, complex and exciting.
The latest dizziness. Its almost violet-perfumed aroma enchants the taster, and tired eyes rest on its beautiful rounded body.
