Description

While most may be more familiar with Furmint from Tokaj, this is a completely different animal. This is especially the case with a warm vintage like 2023. It is fresh, citrusy, with quince and pear notes, herbal and animal skin undertones, and a mineral-driven palate. The wine is hand-harvested, naturally fermented in Hungarian oak barrels, and aged for 10 months in used oak and 8 months in tanks before bottling.  A beautiful wine, the naturally high acidity and aromatic neutrality of Furmint allows the Somló volcanic soils to shine clearly
