The northern shore, where Csopak sits, is a run of volcanic slopes looking south over the water, and the reds made here are lighter, fresher and more savoury than those from Hungary's hotter continental regions — closer in spirit to a good Loire or Alpine red than to anything heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTufa takes its name from the volcanic tuff underneath the vineyards, the soft consolidated ash that defines the Tihany peninsula and the slopes around it. It gives the wine a dusty, mineral quality underneath the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSzent Donát is run by Tamás Kovács on organically farmed slopes above Kerekedi Bay. This is ground with an unusually long memory: winemaking here is documented from the seventh century, and Roman villa ruins still sit among the vines. Kovács frames the estate's work as preservation as much as production — \"this heritage must be preserved for future generations\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServe it with a slight chill.
