From the historic Château Bela estate—revived under Egon Müller's guidance on Roman-planted Danube vineyards—this Cabernet ferments with 2-week skin contact then ages 24+ months in old French barriques. The 2017 growing season yielded fresh fruit texture with velvety ripe tannins from loess-gravel soils protected by Carpathian mountains.
