In this episode of IntoWineTV, host Lisa Kolenda and wine experts Bartholomew Broadbent, Laely Heron, and Mulan Chan convene at one of San Francisco's finest restaurants, Incanto, to taste and discuss wines from regions not typically associated with wine, including Slovenia, Croatia, Austria, Hungary, and Andalusia, Spain.

Theme: Wines from Strange Places

Wine: 2007 Craftsman Cserszegi Fueszeres ($10.95)
Region: Neszmély Region, Hungary
Alcohol content: 11.5%
Varietal: Cserszegi Füszeres (Cserszegi Fűszeres is the result of a Hungarian cross of Gewürztraminer with Irsai Oliver, itself a Hungarian white table/wine variety crossed between Pozsony and Pearl of Csaba.)

Wine Notes: A light, refreshing wine, with pleasant aromas of spring. A native Hungarian variety, Cserszegi Füszeres exhibits a fragrance similar to that of the Muscat grape and the gentle spiciness of a Gewürztraminer. This unpronounceable grape has a lovely grapey, floral/aromatic nose and a dry palate that shows a slightly spicy edge. Fresh, crisp, acidic, and very tasty. Pairs well with salads, light seafood, and spicy Asian cuisine.

Laely Heron, Owner and Winemaker at Heron Wines.
Mulan Chan, Rhône and French Regional Buyer, K&L Wine Merchants, San Francisco.

Location: San Francisco's Incanto Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar.
