This wine shows a more savoury, nuanced side of the grape: crushed rose, bergamot, pear skin and a subtle green‑spice complexity. Fermented slowly and raised in inert vessels, the wine keeps its shape through finely managed phenolics and a cool, lake‑driven line of acidity. An understated, textural Tramini with clarity rather than opulence, and a distinctly Balatonboglár calmness beneath the perfume.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cardwell Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52180113686842,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6022\/0218\/files\/Kristinus_Tramini_textural_Cardwell_Cellars.png?v=1764842892"},{"product_id":"kristinus-kekfrankos-clayver-2020","title":"Kristinus Kékfrankos Vári Dūlõ 2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eKristinus farms on the southern shore of Lake Balaton (Balatonboglár PDO), where loess and volcanic ash, the cooling lake influence, lake Ferto (aka Neusiedlersee in Austria), the use of high quality amphorae, and a very serious commitment to biodynamic agriculture shape a very distinctive and elegant expression of Kékfrankos.
