Interesting Facts

Crazy Lud (translates to Goose from Hungarian) is the flagship field blend that serves as an entry into Oszkár’s world. The wine gets its name from the lake next to the vineyards in the Northern part of the country.
A lot of the vineyards in this region are bush-trained and cultivated by horses because no tractor can fit the narrow rows.

Clay instead of wax or foil

Oszkár’s obsession with ancient techniques combined with his rebellious attitude drove him to yet another invention - instead of plastic caps, or artificial waxes, he used clay to seal the top of the bottle. Probably the closest we ever get to the terroir from the comfort of our home.
The opening is as easy as a firm wax - drive the cross crew trough, pull the cork halfway, gently blow/wipe the clay that comes off, pull the cork and enjoy the wine

Vinification

70% of the grapes were de-stemmed and pressed directly the rest was macerated with the skins for a couple of days to enhance extraction and complexity.

After pressing the juice ferments and ages in large oak barrels and stainless steel. After about 8-10 months it is bottled unfiltered, unfined with a pinch of sulphur.
