Cheeses: Parenyica

What to pour with their cheese

Parenyica with Dry Furmint (unoaked or lightly oaked)

Our pick

Parenyica is lightly smoked and, per the HÍR collection, pleasantly salty; the high acidity of an unoaked or lightly oaked dry Furmint refreshes the palate between bites and keeps the smoke from lingering.

Parenyica with Sweet (édes) Szamorodni

Our pick

Sweet Szamorodni is aged in oak and keeps a high acidity; its oxidative or nutty warmth meets the smoke of a salty parenyica roll, and its sweetness softens the salt.

Parenyica with Dry Szamorodni

Our pick

Dry Szamorodni is oxidative and nutty, a different register from dry Furmint; that nuttiness can sit alongside a smoked parenyica roll without covering the milder cheese.
