The reference to the uniform quality of tokaji wines is only true in a relative sense, if at all. Some terrible stuff is still produced there too. The difference is that bad tokaji doesn't travel, not even to Budapest (Russia is an exception), whereas bad bull's blood is all over Europe, tarnishing the reputation of the outstanding bikavérs. varbal 22:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I've given it a serious copyedit to Start standard, but I've done no fact checking or referencing, which it badly needs. I hope our Hungarian friends don't mind me using the standard en:Wikipedia names for the grapes. The last section is a bit woolly, but better than it was. Could do with a bit more on the development of the blend, especially wrt Blaufrankisch I feel.
I've also done Start articles on Blauburger and Fritz Zweigelt, which we were missing FlagSteward 13:38, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Palotai Vineyard & Winery is an American winery from the Umpqua Valley AVA region. It was founded by Gabor Palotai. He is a native of Hungary who gained his early training in his home country. His winery produces a blend called Bull's Blood which I believe conforms to the the Egri Bikavér blending standard. Once the blend has been confirmed would it make sense to call this a Bikavér? Since this article redirects Bull's Blood to the article would the winery possibly tie in as an example of Bikavér production spreading outside Hungary? Your thoughts on this are appreciated, thank you.
