Bulls Blood, Szekszardi (Hungarovin) 2007 75cl Code: Country: Region: Category: Barcode: Hungary Szekszard Hungarian Red Wine 5015271007202 Description: A rich blend of native and classic grape varieties from the most prized vineyards of the famous Szekszard region in South Hungary. Well known for over 500 years, Szekszardi's Bull's Blood is a medium to full bodied red with intense raspberry and plum fruit flavours. Background: The Bikavér (Bull's Blood) blend, exclusive to the Eger and Szekszárd regions, is the best-known of all Hungarian wines. Legend has it that the name originates from the unsuccessful siege of Eger by the Turks in 1552, when the heavily outnumbered Hungarians had nothing to drink but red wine. This proved to be to their advantage, their red stained beards and wild eyes terrified the Turks, who thought they had been drinking Bull's Blood. BUY 6 FOR £5.45 EACH.
