Drinking Window: 2022 - 2022
A dry Furmint with a touch of residual sugar (8g/L), from vineyards in the heart of the region, in the foothills of the Carpathian mountains. The soils here are volcanic, and give the wine a delicate minerality, which is allied to juicy pear, peach and citrus flavours. Generous, juicy fruit character, and modest alcohol.
