About the Wine

Natural wine from Hungary remains one of Europe’s quiet frontiers, and Unwritten Poem captures this spirit with precision rather than provocation. Crafted by Tiwari House in the volcanic landscapes surrounding Lake Balaton, this limited-production pétillant naturel reflects a philosophy of restraint, site expression, and minimal intervention. Produced in just 4,000 bottles, the 2020 Blanc Cuvée is organic, vegan, and unapologetically transparent—allowing grape, soil, and season to speak without embellishment.

Tasting Experience

Colour
Straw yellow with delicate haze and fine, feather-light bubbles.

Aroma & Palate
The nose is gentle and nuanced, offering white flowers, lemon zest, white melon, and subtle earthy notes reminiscent of wet stone. On the palate, the wine is bone-dry and linear, delivering flavours of fresh lemon, green apple, and a precise saline touch that reflects Badacsony’s volcanic soils. The mousse is soft and unobtrusive, enhancing texture rather than dominating the wine.

Body
Light-bodied, agile, and refreshing.

Finish
Clean and mineral-driven, finishing with citrus zest and a whisper of rock salt.

Why This Wine Matters

Pét-nat wines often lean toward exuberance or funk; Unwritten Poem chooses clarity instead. Made from indigenous Hungarian varieties Budai Zöld and Kéknyelű, and sourced from single vineyards, this wine reflects a growing movement within Central Europe toward quiet, thoughtful natural winemaking. For Singapore drinkers seeking low-alcohol, food-friendly sparkling wines beyond Prosecco or Champagne, this is a compelling alternative rooted in authenticity rather than trend.
