Product Info

92 poena - Decanter

Proizvedeno od najkvalitetnijih parcela na imanju Tonković — vodećeg specijaliste za sortu Kadarka u Panonskom basenu — Rapsodija predstavlja vrhunac rada ove vinarije sa ovom nježnom, ali karakterističnom sortom. Tonković je poznat po izuzetno pažljivom radu u vinogradu, niskim prinosima i jasnoj posvećenosti da Kadarku uzdigne na svjetski nivo. Njihova vina prepoznata su po čistoći, eleganciji i gotovo burgundskom stilu.

Odležavana najmanje dvije godine u novim hrastovim bačvama od 300 litara, Rapsodija 2015. pokazuje veću dubinu, koncentraciju i strukturu u odnosu na Fantaziju, ali zadržava njenu prepoznatljivu eleganciju i svježinu. Na nosu se otvaraju note crvene trešnje, suve brusnice, latica ruže i nježnih začina, koje prelaze u arome kedra, duvanskog lista i suptilnih zemljanih tonova. Na nepcu je profinjena, ali izražajna — sa mekanim taninima, živom kisjelinom i dugim, gracioznim završetkom oblikovanim dotjeranom hrastovinom i finom mineralnošću.

Ovo je izuzetno svestrano gastronomsko vino, savršeno uz jednostavan steak frites, sporo kuvani boeuf bourguignon i divljač, ali jednako dobro i uz pečenu patku, jela na bazi gljiva ili odležane tvrde sireve.

Produced from the finest parcels of the Tonković estate — the leading specialist in Kadarka in the Pannonian Basin — Rapsodija represents the pinnacle of the winery’s work with this delicate yet characterful variety. Tonković is renowned for its meticulous vineyard management, low yields, and unwavering commitment to elevating Kadarka to truly world-class status. Their wines are known for purity, finesse, and an almost Burgundian touch.

Aged for a minimum of two years in new 300-litre oak barrels, the 2015 Rapsodija shows greater depth, concentration, and structure than Fantazija, yet retains that wine’s hallmark elegance and freshness. The nose opens with red cherry, dried cranberry, rose petal, and subtle sweet spice, evolving toward cedar, tobacco leaf, and a gentle earthy undertone. On the palate, it is refined but confident — supple tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, graceful finish shaped by polished oak and fine mineral tension.

This is an exceptionally versatile gastronomic wine, pairing naturally with simple steak frites, slow-braised boeuf bourguignon, and venison, but equally at home with roast duck, mushroom-based dishes, or aged hard cheeses.
