Product Description
The Patricius Winery was established by the Kékessy family’s oenological vocation for the future, which derives from the past. The owners are Dezsõ Kékessy and his daughter Katinka Kékessy. The family’s ancestors both in maternal and paternal ascending line were well-known vineyard owners in the regions of the hills of Mátra and Tokaj from the 18th century. The maternal ancestors – the Okolicsányi family- had vineyards in Tokaj, Szegi and Szõlõske. Besides they held important offices as public servants (deputy – lieutenant, Member of Parliament). The winery is a rebuilt wine-press house in the vineyard Várhegy. The building was owned by the Jesuits and various aristocratic families as Wolkenstein and Falkenstein, and the counts Széchenyi – Falkenstein, Rákóczi and Hohenlohe. It was used as a simple press – house, however, it already appears in the Tokaj – Hegyalja Album in 1867. The characteristics of this old building have been preserved while it is integrated in a modern winery.
Elegance, freshness, harmony and balance of the flavors are the main qualities. Medium-bodied sweet wine with notes of vanilla and caramel. Lightly sweet showing flavours of orange and white chocolate on a lightly spiced background.
