IPACS-SZABO Inni Jó ‘Drinking is Good’ 2022

25.00

Those who have tasted this wine know that the ‘simplicity’ of its name is about a philosophy, a family story; yet the wine is seriously complex.
A blend of Cabernet Franc and Kékfrankos aged in small barrels – You can expect a seriously complex and rich red wine, while its velvety juiciness and ripe fruitiness really make it dangerously good to drink!

‘Inni Jó’ translates to ‘Drinking is Good’
“My younger son Vencel tasted a sip and said, it feels good to drink, then my eldest, Vince, pondered on ‘Drinking is good!’ – so my three-year-old instinctively articulated the essence we all have been working towards for generations.” – Ipacs tells the story behind the label.

Vinification  The Blaufränkisch aka. Kékfrankos grapes were hand-harvested on 25 September 2022, the Cabernet Franc grapes on 2 October 2021 from the vineyard next to the cellar. Both batches were destemmed, sorted on a sorting table, followed by a few days of cold maceration, fermentation with yeast inoculation, pumping over and a few rackings. Skin contact: Blaufränkisch 15 days, the Franc 19 days.Fraction were vinified separately, pressed with the old, timeless Kossuth press, and after the malolactic fermentation the blending was made. 14 months ageing in 500l oak barrels. Bottled in February 2024, and the bottling was also done very gently, without pumping, with a 1-micron membrane filter, which does not stress the wine. Closed with a premium Diam cork, a new capsule and a slightly renewed label. Arrived to Ireland in May 2024.

Cellaring/Ageing Potential    Good luck! We won’t be able to resist drinking them all. :D
