Reviews & Awards

"When a Hungarian red beats Pétrus in a blind tasting, you know the world of wine is a gunslinger's paradise."
- James Suckling

"Absolutely stunning, silky, and complex. Jammy plum, tobacco, smokey wood, blackberry, and a bit of black cherry. I LOVE this one!"
- Jon T.

"Very deep intense, probably the best Merlot that I have ever tried! It is a masterpiece from Gere Attila."
- Zoltan F.

The 'Bor'

It was again a serious Merlot blind-test, in which many international big-shots including two legendary wines – Masseto 2001 (100-point wine in Wine Spectator) and Chateau Petrus 1998 – also participated.

The tasting was done blind, with numbered samples (1-20). The wines showed in a wonderful way that from the Merlot variety, really special wines are born in different parts of the world.

The final results proved again that Hungarian wines – among them the Solus – are in coordinative relation with the greatest prestige wines of the world.

Gere Attila Winery

The history of the Gere Attila Winery started 7 generations ago and the business, just like before, is run by all members of the family.

Respect for the soil, proper selection of varietals & technical precision in the cellar have all contributed to preserving and expressing the aromas and flavours true to Villány.

Attila Gere has taken it one step further by only using locally selected, indigenous yeast strains for the fermentation process.

This contributes to the character of their natural, individual, terroir-driven estate wines and we at The Wine Key are proud to be able to share these wines with you!
