This is a 100% Furmint wine from a single vineyard. Furmint is the most famous of Hungary's indigenous grape varieties and is known for minerality and striking acidity. This wine was aged for nine months in Hungarian oak. Additionally, because 2020 was a cold vintage the wine underwent some skin maceration giving it a lovely golden hue.
TASTING NOTES
The elegance of the nose carries through into the mouth where the refined acids are perfectly ripe yet still bursting with life. Exceptional proportions with finesse and minerality defining the wine. Although it has residual sugar, the acidity keeps it wonderfully dry, full-bodied, deep. Wood is fully integrated, barrel notes, hint of vanilla, like Grandma’s biscuits. Typical barrel-aged Furmint nose. Beautiful long finish with vanilla.
