100% Furmint. Light straw-yellow in color with green highlights, this wine opens with aromas of green apple, quince, pear, almond, citrus peel, fresh herbs, and subtle vegetal notes of green spice. The palate is vibrant and textured with flavors of ripe apple, stone fruit, lemon zest, almond, saline minerality, and a distinctive savory herbal character. Dry with high acidity, medium body, medium-plus flavor intensity, and a medium-plus finish, the wine shows impressive freshness and structure. Lees aging contributes a rounded, creamy mid-palate texture that balances the wine’s energetic acidity, while the subtle elegant bitterness and saline mineral finish highlight the volcanic character of the Disznókő estate. This is a precise, terroir-driven expression of Furmint, combining tension, complexity, and a refined sense of place.
