Critics Ratings

'Another Cheval Blanc-like blend of 65% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot is the 2013 Rapszodia Proprietary Red, which has mind-blowing aromatics of blueberries, white flowers, raspberries and foresty notes in a fragrant, compelling scent of explosive perfume. Deep, concentrated, multidimensional, yet vibrant and super-concentrated, this is another tour de force, although only 150 cases were made of this superstar that finished at 13.8% natural alcohol. Drink it over the next 25-35 years.' - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 99/100 (Oct 2016)

'The 2013 Rapszodia, Kapcsándy's Cabernet Franc/Merlot blend, is utterly magnificent. Deep, powerful and wonderfully resonant in the glass, with broad shoulders and fabulous concentration, the 2013 exudes a regal, aristocratic personality that is undeniable. Mocha, plum, espresso, spice and leather are some of the many dimensions that open up. Readers will have to be patient, though, as the 2013 is a wine built for the cellar. In 2013, the blend is 65% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 97+/100 (Oct 2015)
