This is our strongest expression, through which we convey the unique natural characteristics of the Vill\u00e1ny wine region. That is why we call it the essence of our winery.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite this, it is by no means the best-known A. GERE wine among the general public. This is due to the extremely limited number of bottles produced and the fact that the wine is not widely available in stores. Our top-of-the-range wine is available exclusively at the winery and through a select few retail and restaurant partners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s interesting about the history of Attila is that we didn\u2019t call the wine that at first. In the early years, we referred to it as \u201cGrand Vin de Vill\u00e1ny\u201d. For a time, the wine formed part of an important personal experiment. Through this experiment, we sought to answer the question of how far we could restrict the yield of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot in the Vill\u00e1ny wine region, making it an important milestone in our learning process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We first produced this wine in 2000, but we took its experimental status so seriously that we didn\u2019t put a label on the bottle for a long time. The 2002 vintage was the first to be released under the name Grand Vin de Vill\u00e1ny. By this time, Attila Gere, the founder of our winery, had another goal in mind for this wine besides expanding his own knowledge: he wanted to demonstrate the highest level of quality that we are capable of achieving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next turning point came with a visit from a wine merchant from Luxembourg. Attila Gere placed a bottle of wine on the table for him to taste. He said it was fantastic and that it would be a shame to give it a name also used for mediocre wines in Bordeaux. He suggested the name Attila because, as he put it, &#8216;This is your signature; this wine is you. Put your signature on the bottle.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When producing Attila, after the 16- to 18-month barrel aging process used for our premium wines, we taste through all the barrels. At this stage, we select which of the new wines to use for our top wines, and we set aside the seven highest-rated barrels first for Attila. However, Attila goes beyond the trio of Kopar, Solus and Vill\u00e1nyi Franc, not only in this regard, but also because we produce it less frequently than those wines. It is the pinnacle of our portfolio; we only bottle it when we have something truly special to express.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This wine is a blend of three grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. In this case, however, we don\u2019t even have a rough recipe; there are no fixed proportions\u2014only the vintage and the style we envision dictate the blend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you think that Attila is a closely guarded wine, you\u2019re right, and you\u2019ll feel even more so when you learn that, in some vintage in which we produce the Attila blend, we also bottle a single-varietal wine of the same name. This involves an even smaller batch: the contents of just two selected barrels, less than 700 bottles. The grape variety used for this wine depends entirely on which of the three varieties proves to be the most brilliant and outstanding in that particular vintage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To truly get to know our winery and experience our take on Vill\u00e1ny, a tasting of the Attila is a must. Our flagship red wine, named after the winery\u2019s founder Attila Gere, is an unforgettable experience for lovers of great red wines.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-sm-offset-2&#8243;][vc_column_text]With our wine named Attila, we showcase the very best our family has to offer through wine.
