Piroska 2021 - Joiseph

"Piroska" - Joiseph

"Piroska" by Joiseph is a cuvée of Zweigelt, Pinot noir. The name of the wine is taken from the Hungarian word 'Piros' which means light red, Piroska is also often used as a female nickname in Hungary. The wine is mineral, slightly sparkling on the tip of the tongue and has a nice cherry scent. A perfect wine to drink with friends at a barbecue party! 

Service

We taste it at a temperature of 14/16° in tulip glasses. Wine to drink immediately but will express the best of itself in a few years.

Pairing

Wine is great with starters, first  dishes, to try with a palte of cheese.

Cellar: Joiseph

Joiseph is the product of the union of three friends, Luka, Richard and Alex, who make wine from the vineyards of Jois, in the Austrian region of Burgenland. The name of the winery takes inspiration from the town where most of the vineyards are located, Jois (eph). The vineyards (about 6 hectares of which 1 not yet in production) are located on the slopes of the Leitha mountains, and the soil is mostly schist and limestone, rich in silicon, clay, sand and gravel, a legacy of the ancient presence of the so-called Pannonian Sea. They use, in purity and in blends, many native and traditional varieties of the area, producing original and juicy wines since 2015, the first year of production.
