NJK | New in July! 35.90 €

Experience the flagship wine of the estate!
Kovács Nimród NJK 2018 is a monumental, profoundly complex blend crafted from one of Hungary's finest Grand Cru vineyards. Named after the winery's founder, Nimród János Kovács, this masterpiece unites the indigenous Kékfrankos (Blaufränkisch) grape with powerful Syrah, creating a Hungarian red wine of truly world-class stature.
The grapes originate exclusively from the legendary Nagy-Eged Hill in Eger – Hungary's highest and most prestigious vineyard site. Characterized by steep limestone slopes and exceptional sun exposure, this remarkable terroir produces grapes with outstanding concentration, freshness, and elegance. Only the finest hand-selected fruit from the 2018 vintage was chosen for this exceptional cuvée.

The nose reveals an extraordinarily complex bouquet. Aromas of ripe plum liqueur, smoky raspberries, and blackberries are beautifully layered with notes of allspice, fine pipe tobacco, licorice, and a hint of cocoa. On the palate, the wine is powerful and concentrated, yet remarkably refined. Juicy sour cherry and plum preserve are supported by perfectly integrated oak and silky, mature tannins. The finish is exceptionally long, harmonious, and velvety, reflecting the profound minerality and character of its unique terroir.

What makes this wine truly exceptional?
The wine was aged for an impressive 27 months in small 225-litre oak barriques. The barrel selection consists of 70% French, 15% Hungarian, and 15% American oak, with 38% new barrels, giving the wine its distinctive creamy texture and elegant smoky spice. A genuine rarity for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Food pairing: A wine of this caliber deserves equally impressive cuisine. Perfect with premium beef such as rib-eye steak, slow-braised venison, herb-crusted rack of lamb, or intensely aged hard cheeses.

Serving tip: Decant for at least 1–2 hours before serving to allow the wine to reveal its full complexity.

A world-class red wine of exceptional depth, harmony, and outstanding ageing potential.
