Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Furmint from Tokaj, Hungary. Vines grow on soil that consists of clay or loess soil on volcanic subsoil
Taste Profile: Pale yellow in color. Complex aromas of green fruits with dried apricots and honeyed notes shining in the background. Rich mouthfeel with intense flavours of ripe stone fruit, vibrant volcanic minerality and the characteristic tertiary notes from the oak barrel ageing beautifully
Winemaking Process: Fermented in a stainless steel tank and aged for 10 months in 500l Hungarian oak barrels
Many of these wines often have been touched by botrytis, and have a beautiful balance between fruit & acidity. Despite being lush, they often have some brightness or mineraility to them, and are not as thick textured as some other dessert styles. Classic notes would be honey, botrytis, apricot, peach and other stonefruit, marmalade, spice
