What it pairs with

  • Grilled freshwater fish from the Bodrog
    High acidity cuts through the delicate flesh.
  • Chicken paprikash
    The wine's acidity balances the cream-enriched paprika sauce.
  • Soft fresh goat's cheese
    Crisp dry Furmint and tangy fresh cheese share complementary mineral tones.

History

Family estate in Hercegkút, a Swabian-settled village known for its barrel-vaulted cellar street built into the hillside. The dry Furmint reflects the cooler mesoclimate of this northwestern corner of the Tokaj PDO.
