This Furmint, one of Hungary’s most renowned varietals, is a volcanic white wine that beautifully captures the essence of the region. The nose offers a captivating mineral and stone-like quality, with a creamy richness from its lees aging. On the palate, it delivers a slightly dry, textured mouthfeel with pear and apple notes, rounded off by a refreshing citrusy zing of lime zest. The wine’s volcanic origins give it a unique complexity, making it both invigorating and full of character.
