{"title":"Kolónia 52","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"48\" data-end=\"542\"\u003eKolónia 52 is the project of Annamaria Török and Attila Francisti, two Hungarian winemakers based on Szent György-hegy, near Lake Balaton. Before starting their own cellar, they travelled widely and worked with important names in biodynamic and natural wine, including Heinrich and Gut Oggau. Their winery began in 2021, and even the name has a personal story: it comes from the tiny cellar where they first made wine together, on Kolónia Street number 52. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"544\" data-end=\"988\"\u003eWhat makes Kolónia 52 easy to like is the clear idea behind it. They work on a small scale because they want to stay close to the vineyards and keep control of quality. Farming is organic, supported by biodynamic methods, with a lot of handwork in the vines. They also care strongly about biodiversity, planting trees and encouraging herbs and natural life around the vineyards instead of forcing the land. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"990\" data-end=\"1595\"\u003eTheir vineyards lie on volcanic soils, with basalt and some limestone, which helps give the wines tension, freshness, and a strong sense of place. They grow both local and international grapes, including Furmint, Olaszrizling, Kékfrankos, Riesling, and Pinot Noir. In the cellar, the approach is simple: hand harvest, spontaneous fermentation, gentle extraction, aging in used barrels or amphora, and little to no sulfur unless really necessary. The result is a range of lively, honest wines that feel rooted in the landscape rather than shaped by heavy intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"kolonia-52-controlled-chaos","title":"Controlled Chaos","description":"\u003cp\u003eControlled Chaos by Kolónia 52 is all about blending red and white grapes to find surprising harmony in each new vintage. Originally an experimental cuvée in 2019, it captures the spirit of embracing nature’s spontaneity in winemaking. The grapes, including \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/grapes-pinot-noir\" title=\"Pinot Noir Grape\"\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/a\u003e and sometimes \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/grapes-chardonnay\" title=\"Chardonnay grape\"\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/a\u003e or Furmint, come from vines rooted in volcanic basalt with limestone layers around Lake Balaton—an area known for its mineral-rich soils. By using mostly whole-bunch fermentation and careful aging in barrels or amphora, the winemakers preserve bright berry notes from the red grapes while adding a subtle crispness from the whites. This lively style pairs beautifully with chicken paprikás, a nod to its Hungarian origins. Low-intervention methods and biodynamic principles enhance the wine’s honest character, making each sip feel fresh and approachable. It’s a unique choice for those who want to explore Hungarian wines that blend tradition with creativity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kolónia 52","offers":[{"title":"2023 \/ 75CL","offer_id":49930075930966,"sku":"KOLO0012375","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"2025 \/ 75CL","offer_id":54030506426710,"sku":"KOLO0012575","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9763\/3878\/files\/no-photo.jpg?v=1748264541"},{"product_id":"kolonia-52-plazma","title":"Plazma","description":"\u003cp\u003ePlazma from Kolónia 52 is a white blend that brings together four of Hungary’s traditional grape varieties: Furmint, Hárslevelű, Welschriesling (Olaszrizling) and Juhfark.

This gives the wine both freshness and texture, while highlighting the character of each grape.
