What is ‘Fordítás’?

A special variety of wine produced in Tokaj since 1826. After preparing the “Aszú”, additional must or new wine is poured over the remaining raisins, then – following maceration and pressing – the wine is matured in oak casks for at least one year. It is also known as “secondary Aszú”.

Lenkey

Géza, a renowned winemaker from the Tokaj-Hegyalja region, is celebrated for his dedication to preserving the unique character of the grapes. His bold, expressive wines and innovative aging techniques, applied not only to sweet Tokaji Aszú but also to dry Furmint and Hárslevelű wines, showcase his belief in the terroir-driven complexity of Tokaji wines that deserve time to fully flourish.
