Oszkar Maurer Description
Oszkár Maurer is a celebrated natural winegrower and maker in Subotica, Serbia - just south of the border with Hungary. He farms organically and bottles his wines unfined and unfiltered with no additions, including sulfites (ØØ). "Lud" means "goose" in Hungarian and "crazy" in Serbian. So: Crazy Goose, as shown on the label! 2022 Crazy Lud Red is mostly kékfrankos, cabernet sauvignon, and kadarka, with a little muscat Hamburg and prokupac for heightened aromatics and grip. The wine is macerated briefly (2-6 days) on the skins in open vats and then aged in used 500-liter Hungarian oak barrels for one year. It’s a light-bodied red or even dark rosé that responds well to 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator. This is an excellent introduction to Maurer: playful, distinctive, and easy to drink, yet with an underlying complexity and even seriousness. 12.6% alcohol.
