What it pairs with

  • Pike-perch with lemon butter
    The wine's mineral acidity and citrus notes are a natural companion for fresh-water fish.
  • Grilled vegetables with olive oil
    The savoury mineral register pairs well with charred vegetables.
  • Mild goat's cheese
    Citrus and saline mineral in the wine echo tangy fresh cheese.

History

Holdvölgy's Notabene Furmint was established as the estate's dry flagship from their Mád vineyards, produced from the old-vine parcels above the cellar tunnels of Mád's famous underground cave system, which runs nearly 2 km.
